Why ObjectGOO |
|
Near Zero Configuration
|
|
Persist Objects in SQL in Minutes
|
|
No Config Files (Did I already say that)
|
|
Partial Persitance Normalization
|
|
Its Free
|
|
Its Open Source
|
|
Retrieve objects using SQL
|
|
Auto reconfigures views for reporting
|
|
|
|
Status
|
|
ObjectGOO is PRE-Alpha, I have decided to release a Demo
project as the methods and interfaces wont change only be added to and revised for
performance and Oracle compatiblity. A Subversion repository and Forge should be
available by months end if you wish to help.

Oddities
|
|
ObjectGOO has an unusual side effect, it is actually FASTER at retrieval and population of Datasets than native ADO.Net.
Reason: Because the way objects are deserialized into XML they translate to create a dataset much faster than retrieval from a flat structure then into XML.
Odd but true.....

| | ObjectGOO has landed (SPLAT
!) |  With a splat for now lets say. Well
sort of, I have decided after much prodding and pushing to relase a proof of concept
demo. I have decided to release an earlier and (sort of) working demo.
Cliche' I know but please excuse the dust I threw this site together with tired
eyes in a few hours and there are lots of spelling and grammar errors to be corrected
as time allows.
I will be posting the code for ObjectGOO itself shortly, Meanwhile a Demo Project
is available with an old single threaded model for inserts that is semi-stable for
CRUD, I'm in the middle of a teardown,
the version (released only as a dll (all 48kb) turns SQL 2005 (And Soon Oracle 10g +) into an Object Database.
I was tired of writing (or having junior developers) write SQL maps for IBatis and
the like for prototyping and training, so ObjectGOO was Born.
I coded the original implementation in an evening, the second in 2 days, its lightweight
uses no config files and Will persist objects, Collections, Etc, using deep serialization.
The MS entity framework will be integrated as well as LINQ when released but realize
ObjectGOO is MUCH MUCH simpler to use and implement, it does all the "dirty work"
on the downside it currently only works with SQL 2005-2008, Oracle support is in
the works and partially complete. So say a Person has a collection of addresses
, I can persist either the person or the whole domain chain..... With one line of
code.

BlogGOO
|
 BlogGOO
is a proof of concept using ObjectGoo, its a simple blog engine meant to be dropped
in place and run. This will be available on the forge at months end. |

|
SurveyGOO
|
 SurveyGOO
is a Generic Relational Survey Engine, it is meant for Boolean (True / False) ,
Freeform (Text Based) and multiple Multiple Choice , a question has a predicate
depending on how its answered , different questions may be presented, related to
the parent question with an unlimited depth. Originally
built for a client and the project was scrapped internally, no use in letting the
code go to waste.
Data is available for a simple report (included in the project) or for consumption
by other more sophisticated analysis engines, such as MS Analyisis Service.
Alpha Release planned for Mid Dec. 2007 |
|
|
Known Issues
|
|
LOTS ! Its Pre-Alpha code.
Inserts are in the Demo only Single Threaded. (Last version to pass NUnit tests
100%)
SQL Parsing 85% complete must use * on selects.
ENUM persistance broke somewhere along the line while threading.
.....Trust me there are more, did I say PRE-Alpha ?
|
|
Requirements
|
|
SQL 2005 or (SQL 2005 Express Installed)
PWS, or IIS (for Demo)
.Net 2.0 or Greater framework (Tested up to 3.5 beta 2 and SQL 2008 Beta/RC)
|
|
Whats Coming.....
|
|
Multithreaded Inserts
Bulk Inserts
DataTable, as well as many IBatis style overloads for object retrieval options.
LINQ Integration.
Lazy Loading of large collections
