EclipseLink

[Aristedes Maniatis <ar...@ish.com.au>]

For those who haven't seen it yet, Toplink from Oracle has been  
released as open source under the Eclipse project and named EclipseLink.

http://www.eclipse.org/eclipselink/


Looks like they have JPA and quite a few other nice bits and pieces. I  
found this introductory article:

It seems that EOF is one of the only major Java persistence frameworks  
still closed source. I don't know if there are any interesting parts  
of EclipseLink worth looking at (like database compatibility layers or  
test suites) or whether the Eclipse license is compatible with the  
Apache license, but it might be worth a look.

Cheers

Ari Maniatis
