Thanks to Contributors of WilsonORMapper v2.0
I want to give a very special thanks to several
significant contributions from subscribers for the just
released
WilsonORMapper
Version 2.0:
1)
Ken Muse participated in lengthy design discussions, gave lots of
sample code, and helped with a lot of testing for the
major new features of Recursive Persistence and Cascading
Deletes. We ended up staying as close as possible once
again to the MS ObjectSpaces syntax, including using an
enum in PersistChanges and using the cascadeDelete mapping
attribute for relations.
2)
Allan Ritchie
provided code that became GetCollection, for your own
strongly typed custom collections, as well as
single-handedly adding the feature for using embedded
resources for the mappings. The GetCollection method
takes an extra parameter to allow you to specify your
custom collection type, about as close as we can get to
Generics without actually having them in .NET v1.1!
3)
Jason Mesches, one of Kevin McNeish's developers at
Oakleaf Enterprises, wrote the OPath converter that is now available in the
QueryHelper's GetExpression method. Kevin also has Rick
Strahl and John Miller adding support for the
WilsonORMapper to his Mere Mortal's Framework -- so if you
need a complete framework to get up and running quickly, I
strongly recommend theirs.
4) Jerry Shea added
some support for class hierarchies and simple mapping
inheritance, as well as making the ObjectHolder's
InnerObject property settable.
5) Tim Byng
helped me to add support for optional field default
null-values, again staying close to the syntax MS
ObjectSpaces, back in v1.1.
Thanks to you all, Paul Wilson
