computed field in a computed record, Depot freaks out because it doesn't know what table the computed field comes from when it doesn't come from any table. So clearly this is what we want to achieve that functionality, but what I'm not 100% sure about is what ass biting we're opening ourselves up to here by not freaking out in this case. We may be taking a step backwards in terms of useful error reporting if someone does something stupid with computed fields. But we'll just have to see what those errors are when they crop up. If the database can't figure out what we're talking about with the unqualified field name, it too will freak out.
Depot Persistence Library ------------------------- Depot is a relational persistence library for Java. It is an ORM library, but has aims that are somewhat different from the popular "managed" persistence libraries like Hibernate and others. Website ------- See the Depot website for documentation and other info: http://code.google.com/p/depot/ Building -------- The library is built using ant. It can be found here: http://jakarta.apache.org/ant/ Next, ensure that the necessary third party jar files are copied to the lib/ directory. See etc/libs-incl.xml for the list of those jar files. Finally invoke 'ant dist' to compile the code and generate a jar file. Invoke 'ant -p' to see information on other build targets. Depot also provides .classpath and .project files for Eclipse users which require that you set an EXT_LIBS_DIR variable indicating the location of the external jar dependencies. The Depot Eclipse project also depends on the Eclipse project for the samskivert library. That library can be found at: http://code.google.com/p/samskivert/ License and Distribution ------------------------ Depot is released under the LGPL. This means you are free to use Depot on any project, open source or proprietary, but that any modifications made to the library must be made available to the maintainers. See COPYING for more detailed information. The most recent version of the Depot source code is available at the website listed above. $Id$
