Hey Tom,
The ORM takes care of writing the code to translate queries into objects, so
you don't have to actually do that. To illustrate, take a look at this code:
<cfcomponent>
<cfproperty name="FirstName" type="String" />
<cfproperty name="LastName" type="String" />
</cfomponent>
<cfscript>
User = CreateObject('User');
User.setFirstName('Tom');
User.setLastName('Thomas');
User.save();
</cfscript>
With an ORM behind it, that code just created or update a user with the name
Tom Thomas in the db. Not a single line of SQL needed to be written. Not bad
eh.
Cheers,
Baz
