We've rolled up a number of minor changes, fixes and enhancements into a new release of XORM, an object relational mapping layer for Java using the JDO API. Now using JDO 1.0.1.

A new release of the XORM object-relational mapping tool is now available. This release includes advanced JDOQL support, making it even easier to develop database-driven applications while programming to a Java object model. Other new features include enhanced support for forward- and reverse-engineering, plus other tools and JDO API support.

A new release of XORM, an implementation of the Java Data Objects (JDO) specification that speeds application development through its unique use of interface-based persistence, is now available. This release includes a number of feature and performance enhancements, and while it still carries the moniker "Beta", it is being used in several successful production projects.

XORM Beta 2 includes performance enhancements, customizability, support for abstract classes and many new features. Interoperability with the JDO API is improved and much more -- check it out.

The first public release of XORM, an unconventional implementation of Java Data Objects (JDO) designed for ease of use and rapid development, is now available! Use interface-based persistence to many popular databases the open-source way.

The final JDO 1.0 specification and JAR file has been released. See http://access1.sun.com/jdo/ for links. XORM has been updated to compile and run against the latest jdo.jar from the specification download.

Javadocs have been updated to match some recent API changes. See http://xorm.sourceforge.net/api/
