Toplink is one of the oldest O/R Mapping systems in production, and dates back to the mid-90's. It was purchased by Oracle, and was used to make their reference JPA implementation. In fact, Oracle's advocacy in the JPA standard was substantially influenced by Toplink. Toplink, in the good-old-days, competed (in some ways) with the Enterprise Object Framework from NeXTSTEP, became part of WebObjects, and is still at the root of some of the Core Data stuff. Toplink is a lot of things, but isn't a project made to provide JPA integration. It's partly the other way around.

cheers,
Christian.
