Hi all,

As many know I'm a great partisan of WebObjects. Unfortunately my current position makes using it out of the question. I'm wondering what FOSS software is most like EOF out there? I have an application using a really horrid ORMS called Torque (named after the feeling it gives you when you try to use it) on top of MySQL. I am planning to rip it out and replace it with possibly Cayenne and definitely PostgreSQL.

FrontBase changed their licensing scheme recently, you might want to check them out.

What are other possible ORMS that are feature-competitive with EOF? Hibernate is WAY beyond my needs. My current relational model has 4 major tables (biggest table has about 10K rows) with various join tables and is 99% read-only. It's a tiny thing.

Going back and reading the question after all the follow ups out of curiosity, I thought I'd ask a followup question.

1. If your database is so tiny/simple, why its Torque inadequate? (I admit, it reminds me of ActiveRecord from Rails, without the excuse of being a 1.0 release).

  Otherwise, Cayenne is the closest thing to EOF.
