ObJectRelationalBridge
BRIDGING JAVA OBJECTS AND RELATIONAL DATABASES


Quick Start

  1. Be sure to have a JDK 1.2 or higher installed !

  2. unpack the latest tar.gz snapshot to a directory <path> of your choice

  3. in a terminal window (or dos box under Win32) change to directory <path>/ojb

  4. run build[.sh] run_broker_example to see the sample programs test.ojb.broker.BrokerExamples and test.ojb.broker.ProxyExamples running. These samples show basic programming techniques using the OJB PersistenceBroker.

  5. run build[.sh] run_odmg_example to see the sample programs test.ojb.odmg.OdmgExamples running. This samples shows programming techniques using the OJB ODMG implementation.

  6. execute build[.sh] to build sample applications, generate javadoc api documentation and setup the demo database. To see which other build targets are available run build[.sh] targets.

  7. For example you might type build[.sh] junit to run a suite of JUnit regression tests against the framework.

  8. have a look at the code of the sample apps and play with the debug switches to see tracings of all internal components of the system

  9. have a look at the metadata repository repository.xml to see how entity classes are mapped onto an underlying RDBMS
