-ODB is an object-relational mapping (ORM) system for C++. It provides
-tools, APIs, and library support that allow you to persist C++ objects
-to a relational database (RDBMS) without having to deal with tables,
-columns, or SQL and without manually writing any of the mapping code.
-For more information see:
-
-http://www.codesynthesis.com/products/odb/
-
-This package contains the ODB examples. The following list gives an
-overview of the available examples. See the README file accompanying
-each example for more information.
-
-Note also that most of the examples use the --table-prefix ODB compiler
-option to assign a unique prefix to tables created by each example. This
-is done to allow examples to run against the same database without
-causing any schema conflicts. You don't have to use this option in your
-own applications.
-
-hello
- A "Hello World" example that shows how to use ODB to perform basic
- database operations.
-
-query
- Shows how to use the ODB Query Language to search the database for
- persistent objects matching certain criteria.
-
-composite
- Shows how to declare and use composite value types.
-
-container
- Shows how to use containers as data members in persistent objects.
-
-relationship
- Shows how to declare and use unidirectional to-one and to-many
- relationships.
-
-inverse
- Shows how to declare and use bidirectional one-to-one, one-to-many, and
- many-to-many relationships.
-
-inheritance/reuse
- Shows how to use reuse inheritance with ODB.
-
-inheritance/polymorphism
- Shows how to use polymorphism inheritance with ODB.
-
-section
- Shows how to use object sections to implement lazy-loading and change-
- updating of a subset of data members in a persistent class.
-
-view
- Shows how to define and use object, table, mixed, and native views.
-
-prepared
- Shows how to use prepared queries.
-
-optimistic
- Shows how to use optimistic concurrency in ODB.
-
-pimpl
- Shows how to use virtual data members to implement a persistent class that
- employs the pimpl C++ idiom.
-
-c++11
- Shows how to use ODB with C++11.
-
-access
- Shows various approaches used by ODB to access data members that cannot be
- accessed directly.
-
-boost
- Shows how to persist objects that use Boost smart pointers, containers,
- and value types with the help of the Boost profile library (libodb-boost).
-
-qt
- Shows how to persist objects that use Qt smart pointers, containers, and
- value types with the help of the Qt profile library (libodb-qt).
-
-schema/embedded
- Shows how to generate and use a database schema that is embedded into the
- application.
-
-schema/custom
- Shows how to map persistent C++ classes to a custom database schema.
-
-mapping
- Shows how to customize the mapping between C++ value types and database
- types.
