- Subject: Making LuaSQL roar?
- From: PA <petite.abeille@...>

Hello,
I'm wondering if anyone is working on some sort of object-relational
mapping tool for LuaSQL?
Perhaps something along the lines of NeXT's Enterprise Object's
EOAccess framework:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enterprise_Objects_Framework
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/WebObjects/Reference/API/com/
webobjects/eoaccess/package-summary.html
Or Rails's ActiveRecord:
http://ar.rubyonrails.org/
SQL92 INFORMATION_SCHEMA provides all the necessary information to
build a full fledge ORM library without too much fuss. Most relational
databases do support this SQL92 standard one way or another*:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/information-schema-tables.html
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/information-schema.html
http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/wiki?p=InformationSchema
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/
tsqlref/ts_ia-iz_4pbn.asp
Thoughts?
Cheers

* Oracle is in a world by itself... but it would be straightforward
enough to provide a set of INFORMATION_SCHEMA compatible views derived
from Oracle's own data dictionary and/or DBMS_METADATA.
