C++ and object-relational mapping

This example uses the ODMG C++ Binding and the ODMG Object Query Language (OQL). Other C++ bindings and query languages for object-relational mapping products would be similar. Notice that all the code is C++, with the exception of the query string. You will not find a database sub-language in this example. The part in blue relates to the animation of transparent persistence (new window). More information on the ODMG specification (new window). Note that the same code would used for object databases (new window). Transparent persistent interfaces work with both object database or object-relational mapping products.

d_Database db;
d_Transaction txn;
try {
    db.open("addressDB");
    txn.begin();
    // perform query
     d_OQL_Query query(
         "select x from Person x where x.name = \"Doug Barry\"");
    d_Bag<d_Ref<Person> >   allDougBarrys;
    d_oql_execute(query, allDougBarrys);
    d_Iterator<d_Ref<Person> > iter = allDougBarrys.create_iterator();
    // iterate over the results
    d_Ref<Person> p;
    while( iter.next(p) ){
       // do some addition processing on the person (not shown)
       // now traverse to the address object and update its value
       p->address.street = "13504 4th Avenue South";
    }
    txn.commit();
    db.close();
}
//exception handling would go here ...

Customer Review: Mr. Data and Mr. Darwen have much to say in this book. The question is will community of "database" people read it, assimilate it, and get to sufficient mass to discuss the merits of the concepts described in this book? And, if that does happen, will it be too late to implement any of the concepts in a real DBMS? There is no question...
