The database situation on Cocoa is not great. Apple should spend some of that
cash hoard building or buying an object database.
If anyone wants an interesting project, the db4o object database which is
written in Java and GPLed comes with a program called Sharpen which translates

I'm going to can the excerpts from other posts for a moment and bring
this back around to helping to solve Cocoa development problems.
Though you might have to scroll down a bit to get there... :)
There are actually four different specific technical issues that have
been discussed
Yah, it's getting there. It's just not there yet.
The data modeling still isn't quite up to ORM
standards we had nearly 30 years ago.
When we dink with PHP and Python which have
handy APIs, it can get to be frustrating.
Just provide input via the bugreporter and
comments to the docs, and
Core Data solves that through the use of a SQLite backing store. SQL based
data storage is the standard means of achieving incremental retrieval
and storage of data in our industry.
If Core Data talked to standard databases like Oracle etc, then I can see that
as a selling point. But since
If you're trying to say what you think CoreData 'should' be - then
take it up with Apple. (which is not this list, by the way)
This whole thread is depressing. Is anyone out there who is trying to
say that CoreData should be an object database capable of reading the
docs? If so, what part
Hi Bill,
Thanks for your high-level assessment. I've long admired your
technical skills and writing, so it is with much respect that I
offer some counterpoint. I'm compelled because I have a vested
interest and I love Core Data.
