Hi all,
after writing an automatic converter to be able to deploy to C#,
we are back to work on the "real" development platform: Java.
A maintenance release of our engine has gone live yesterday:
http://www.db4o.com
About db4o:
db4o is a client/server Java object database with ACID transactions.
Our key goals for db4o were:
- simplicity
- speed
- small footprint
Give us a try!
Some changes since the last release posted here (2.5):
- We now supply four different JDK versions (1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4).
db4o was tested successfully on a real lot of exotic VMs, like
J9, Symbian, Savaje. (A JDK 1.1 dialect (PersonalJava, J2ME CDC)
with reflection, exceptions and RandomAccessFile functionality
is all that is necessary for db4o.)
- WeakReference collection now runs in a dedicated thread and
you can configure the poll rate or turn it off.
- The servlet interface was refactored out of the engine and
it is now supplied as source code. It has been enhanced to
allow a more flexible transaction setup. A very simple webapp
is supplied with the download to demonstrate the behaviour.
- Embedded clients that communicate directly (without using
a port) with the server are now possible.
- Static field values can be stored and they will automatically
be reassociated with their identity so if(x == Static.CONST)
will work.
Enjoy testing our engine!
Kind regards,
Carl
