RiaForge : DataManager

Language : English Quality : High Has Audio : true Source : Other Media : Flash
DataMgr is a Data Access Layer component set.

It simplifies CRUD interactions with the database (speeding up development time) and has a common API for any supported database (and makes adding a new database easy).

DataMgr is not an ORM, but you could build an ORM on top of DataMgr - allowing you to create an ORM that works the way you want.

DataMgr also encompasses the functionality of Active Schema. You can define your database structure in XML and have DataMgr create it. If you prefer, you can also go the more traditional route and have DataMgr introspect your database (or use both approaches in combination).     [SUGGEST  A  ARTICLE]
