Transfer ORM Adapter moves closer

September 12, 2006 · 4 Comments

Mark Mandel just made me a committer on the Transfer project so I added the first cut of the Model-Glue adapter (and metadata and dictionary objects) to CVS (on transfer.riasforge.org). No documentation yet - we need a separate Transfer configuration object (yeah, like Reactor has) before it becomes easy enough to use to be worth documenting. And I've realized that there are a couple of small enhancements to ColdSpring that will make it easier to swap pluggable adapters inside Model-Glue (already raised on the coldspring-dev list).

Hi sean,
I am about to start a mid-size project and have planned to use Model-glue 2.0. I am not yet sure about ORM tool. Do you suggest Transfer over Reactor , or can you compare ORM tools available for CF in the market in brief?

@Dipak, download my Persistence Presentation (from the "software" pod on my blog) - it talks about four ORMs and their relative merits.
