Re: *URGENT* -- Call for support
Hello,
I also have a look at ozone for some time. It is interesting to see a well
designed OO-Database including XML capabilities.
Right now I'm not sure about the following features:
1. Does ozone store a xml-document as single document or parsed in objects?
In second version
it would also be possible to access the elements of an xml file to OO API.
2. Is it necessary to load the entire document to search it using X-Path?
3. Is it possible to do a XPath-Search through a collection of documents,
i.e. more
instances of a DTD or even different DTDs?
4. Is it possible to update single elements in a document without loading
the entire document?
Is it done using XUpdate? Where to find more information about XUpdate?
5. Where to find more information about ozone/xml ?
6. Does ozone support the OQL language or would we have to use the methods
of the Java collection
framework?
7. Is there a mechanism for light collections so we fetch only objects
really needed from the database?
I'm quite interested in the project, and because we are some developers
here, if we decide to go
deeper in this technology, maybe we can also provide some help.
In every case you don't should give up believe in this great project!!
