Using JPOX to Develop a Persistence API for Generic Objects

摘要

JPOX is an open source project that tries to be the reference between API JDO (Java Data Objects) implementations. Using JDO specifications, Java objects can be persisted automatically, independent of database management system. However, JDO builds the automatic persistence using object type definitions (classes). In this way, specifics query and update methods must be created for each type of object. Therefore, the objective of this work is develop an automatic persistence API for generic objects, based on JPOX project, avoiding database manipulation difficulties, and improving the development of object persistence based applications.
