This book, written by the JDO Specification Lead and one of
the key contributors to the JDO Specification, is the
definitive work on the JDO API. It gives you a thorough
introduction to JDO, starting with a simple application that
demonstrates many of JDO's capabilities. It shows you how
to make classes persistent, how JDO maps persistent classes
to the database, how to configure JDO at runtime, how to
perform transactions, and how to make queries. More
advanced chapters cover optional features such as
nontransactional access and optimistic transactions. The
book concludes by discussing the use of JDO in web
applications and J2EE environments
Whether you only want to read up on an interesting new
technology, or are seriously considering an alternative to
JDBC or EJB CMP, you'll find that this book is essential.
It provides by far the most authoritative and complete
coverage available. |
