O2DBI - Introduction - O2DBI Features

Database connectivity:

  • backend modules for different database management systems (MySQL, PostgreSQL)
  • generated code is independent of database system

Class design:

  • arbitary complex class hierarchies (e.g. currently upto 7 levels of inheritence in EMMAWiki)
  • support for different scalar datatypes (integral types, floats, boolean, strings etc.)
  • support for associations between classes
  • support for persistent array and hash valued attributes
  • nesting of arrays and hashes for complex attributes

Generated code:

  • central master module for propagating method invocations to the right class
  • polymorphic queries
  • object cache for faster object lookups

Extensions:

  • each class may be extended with its own business methods
  • extensions are inherited in the class hierarchie

Interoperability:

  • multiple masters (and thus multiple databases) may be used in parallel
  • different generated hierarchies can be used at the same time, no namespace clashes
