I think D is still missing a really good ORM (Rikki's dvorm is a start), but there's nothing out there that conforms to the "activerecord" pattern as far as I can tell. Hi, I seen the Temple library and I was thinking to use it, but I did not had time to look in more details on it. It looks very nice and I will use it for sure. The solution that I found with the dh files is just a temporary and it should be rewritten as soon as I will find a good solution for the models. Regarding the models I tried to implement something that comforms with "activerecord" in the past, but I failed big time... I intend to do a similar interface for relational databases too, but I don't know right now how I should treat the joins... @Rikki nice job with your projects. I did not know about them and I will take a look on them these days. Thanks, Bogdan

There is hibernated around, but something about it always made me go yeah no. But so does actual hibernate so meh. Dvorm was meant as a very simple interface completely abstracted out from the database engine itself :) It does this very well, even can send/receive emails! I would like to eventually build another library that is backwards compatible with Dvorm but with a lot more features. And far less database engine abstracted away. Mostly so things like Cmsed don't need a full rewrite. But alas, I'm trying to improve the situation for gui's atm.

But I assume it would be rather fast for linking. Which is a good thing. I would recommend if you haven't already to look at my projects, Cmsed[0], livereload[1], skeleton[2] and dvorm[3]. I started dvorm end of last year and is fairly complete at this point. Cmsed is due for rewrite (got most of the code done if you are interested) but I'm waiting on a PR for dmd before doing more.
