Press Release Body = CodeFutures has updated its FireStorm/DAO Java
persistence tool
to provide the option of automatically generating Hibernate Java
persistence code
that would otherwise have to be manually written. CodeFutures' approach
cuts costs
by dramatically increasing developer productivity and improving
code quality.
Hibernate is
an increasingly popular open source Java persistence framework
supported by JBoss Inc. "We've added Hibernate support due
to customer demand. Many
of CodeFutures customers are starting to experiment with Hibernate
but want to keep
the cost savings provided by FireStorm/DAO" says Dan Froelich,
VP Sales, CodeFutures
Software. The objectives of the new release of FireStorm/DAO go
beyond providing an
additional option for existing FireStorm/DAO users. Andy Grove,
CodeFutures' CTO,
explains "Hibernate has gained a solid foothold among pioneering
Java developers.
Hopefully the usability and productivity provided by FireStorm/DAO
will help
Hibernate reach the wider, more mainstream Java developer community."
FireStorm/DAO
is a Java Code Generator that imports existing database schemas
and
then generates a complete persistence tier based on any of the following
Java
persistence technologies:
Java Database
Connectivity (JDBC)
Java Data Objects (JDO)
Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB)
Hibernate (new)
FireStorm/DAO generates Java source code and configuration files
that developers
would otherwise have to write by hand. When generating Hibernate
code (without
DAOs), FireStorm/DAO produces Hibernate persistent classes and a
Hibernate mapping
file (*.hbm.xml) for each database table.
FireStorm/DAO
generates Java persistence code that is compliant with the Data
Access
Object(DAO) core J2EE design pattern). FireStorm/DAO can now also
generate native
persistence code for Object Relational Mapping (ORM) products such
as Hibernate.
Grove explians the "CodeFutures is unique in emphasizing the
importance of a
technology-independent Java persistence tier based on a key J2EE
design pattern.
Other Java persistence tools are focused on a single Java technology
such as
stand-alone Hibernate, rather than a more sustainable long term
Java persistence
architecture."
"FireStorm/DAO
is unique in offering multiple Java persistence technologies in
the
same product. We offer EJB CMP, JDBC, JDO, and now Hibernate. This
means that
CodeFutures can offer advice to customers on the best Java persistence
technology
for a specific application, rather than promote a specific Java
persistence
technology as the perfect solution for all applications." says
PJ Murray, CEO,
CodeFutures Software.
About FireStorm/DAO
FireStorm/DAO
adopts a pragmatic approach of generating Java source code for data
persistence that is a direct mapping of a particular relational
database schema. It
is also possible to define complex multi-table queries and to leverage
existing
database logic contained within stored procedures.
FireStorm/DAO is available in Enterprise, Architect, and OEM editions.
FireStorm/DAO
Architect Edition allows new custom code generation templates to
be developed and
integrated with the FireStorm/DAO Studio environment. FireStorm/DAO
Architect
Edition includes the source code for the Java code generation templates.
The code
generation templates are written in Java, which means that Java
developers have a
very short learning curve before they can start customizing the
code generation.
