ODMG and C++ bindings for Linux (e.g. GNU g++ and postgreSQL) -

Hello,
I would like to know whether it is possible to compile an ODMG 3.0 application
under Linux (possibly using GNU g++ and the object-relational DBMS PostgreSQL,
or alternatively some other combination; do I need an object-oriented databse
management system to use ODMG 3.0 or is an object-relational one good enough?).
Also, in view of the fact that the Java Community Process seems to have superceded
ODMG 3.0 with the Java Data Objects (JDO) Standard, and also in view of relatively
new additions to SQL-99, is ODMG generally viewed as an obsolete standard by ODBMS
enthusiasts? I see that the ODMG standardizing group has been disbanded (and their
website was recently down for weeks).
So, is it worth coding using ODMG 3.0 and has this standard really been
implemented at all under Linux?
Thanks,
Neil |
