Hi,

I would like to know if ObjectSpaces library (the
persistence layer presented in last PDC) will be available
in the next version of the .NET Compact Frameowrk with
Whidbey.

Thanks in advance.

Jose Antonio.
 
Jose,

I haven't seen any specific announcements about that. The ObjectSpaces
classes are part of the Whidbey Ado.Net namespace, and already the Compact
Framework only supports a subset of the Ado.Net classes available on the
desktop. ObjectSpaces will support SqlServer (and perhaps some other popular
desktop databases), so if the Compact Framework did support ObjectSpaces,
you would need a wireless link to a desktop database to take advantage of
it.

There will be new classes for data access for the next version of
SqlServerCE for Whidbey, but what I saw at PDC didn't look like
ObjectSpaces. The new classes were designed for higher performance by
directly accessing data inside SqlCE rather than buffering it as much as the
current version.

You might also want to ask on the microsoft.public.objectspaces newsgroup.

Hi Jose Antonio,

sorry for this shameless plug, but possibly we have what
you need:

We supply a .NET object database engine that also runs on
the Compact Framework. A trial version is available for
download from our website:
http://www.db4o.com

In my opinion db4o is a lot nicer to use than ObjectSpaces,
since you can query directly with objects.

I would also doubt that ObjectSpaces could provide the
same performance.

Kind regards,
Carl
