Announcement: XML-DBMS Alpha Version
Date: Thu, 15 Jul 1999 15:03:03 +0200 From: Ronald Bourret <rbourret@ITO.TU-DARMSTADT.DE> To: XML-L@LISTSERV.HEANET.IE Subject: ANN: XML-DBMS (alpha version)
I have just released an alpha version of XML-DBMS, which is a set of Java packages for transferring data between XML documents and relational databases. It views the XML document as a tree of objects in which element types are generally classes and attributes and PCDATA properties of those classes. It then uses an object-relational mapping to map these objects to the database. An XML-based mapping language is used to define the view and map it to the database.
The software is Open Source and uses the Cowan variation of the Megginson license (No copyright, no warranty; use as you will).
You can read more about XML-DBMS, as well as download it, from:
