Ice and Java JDO

[seth.piezas]

does anyone know if there are huge roadblocks to persisting Ice classes with JDO? generating the ice classes from slice and then bytecode enhancing the relevant files?

thanks,

I can't think of any reasons why this wouldn't work. You can also try to convince yourself by looking at the generated code for a Slice class. The generated Java class extends Ice.ObjectImpl which only contains static attributes. Attributes defined in the Slice class will be mapped according to the Slice to Java mapping to public attributes in the Java class.

The best is simply to try, let us know if you encounter any troubles!

Hi Seth,

I don't see any issue. The only data members of a Slice-generated class are the mapped slice-declared data members. If you want to use these objects as servants, it would probably make sense to write your own servant locator to locate these objects in your database.

Cheers,
Bernard
