Software Tree Updates
NJDX, The KISS OR-Mapper™ for .NET
NJDX Version 1.5 Supports Visual Studio 2005
Santa Clara, Calif.
April 17, 2006: Software Tree has announced NJDX 1.5, the
innovative and versatile Object-Relational Mapping (OR-Mapping) software
that significantly accelerates the development of .NET applications by
eliminating tedious, low-level ADO.NET/SQL coding for persistence. The
new version provides tight integration with Microsoft’s Visual Studio
2005 (VS2005). NJDXStudio,
the Visual Studio add-In, makes it a breeze to perform O/R Mapping
related configuration and verification tasks like reverse engineering of
object model from an existing relational schema and vice-versa. In addition to enhanced type
compatibility with the .NET framework, the new release of this database-agnostic
OR-Mapper also provides many new examples of stored procedure
integration.
Following some well-researched KISS (Keep It Simple and Straightforward)
principles, NJDX
offers a simple,
fast, dynamic, non-Intrusive, and lightweight O/R Mapping solution. NJDX works with most of the
popular databases including Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, IBM DB2, and
Access.
Now, with just a few button clicks, one can
create a database schema from an object model (forward-engineering) or
generate C# classes from an existing database schema (reverse-engineering) from
right within VS2005. The NJDX user manual, the mapping grammar, the
API documentation, and many demos have also been integrated with
VS2005. All this
functionality is also available with VS2003.
To illustrate the simple and intuitive
integration of database stored procedures within NJDX OR-Mapping
framework, many new examples involving in/out parameters and result sets
have been included in the package.
"NJDX
allows me to focus on the business objects rather than on the low level
SQL, “ says David Lypka, an independent .NET consultant. “NJDX
facilitates rapid experiments with different variations of the database
design with a minimum amount of work. I designed my Corporate Tax application without even
inspecting the underlying SQL.
This high-performance O/R Mapper is working great in my ASP.NET
2.0 Web application.”
“Thanks to great feedback
from early evaluators, we have rapidly evolved our OR-Mapping technology
and associated tools to meet most common data integration needs of .NET
developers, “ says Damodar Periwal, President & CEO of Software
Tree. “On the heels of
providing an extremely simplified implementation of the data access layer
(DAL) for the .NET Pet Shop application, we are proud to present NJDX 1.5
supporting Visual Studio 2005.“
A free 30-day
evaluation version of NJDX OR-Mapper is available from Software Tree’s
