Hi there
I can not say I have used any C++ ODBMSs with any success. I have built
very large applications (30 million+ transactions pm) internet based
using both a Java ODBMS and a Smalltalk ODBMS. I am aware that some
companies such as Versant do have C++/C interfaces for their product,
and I believe there are one or two others. I think your problem is
going to be finding an ODBMS that is supported on Mac OS X. There used
to be one that was coupled with CodeWarrior some years ago, but I have
not heard of anything else for a while. As an ODBMS advocate I would
suggest that ODBMSs often outperform RDBMS systems when the data is
"very object based", if you know what I mean. It seems to me that a lot
of people do not use ODBMSs more out of prejudice and ignorance than
any real experience. If anyone does know about a Mac OS X based ODBMS,
I would love to hear about it.

Is anyone using an object database? I have used several relational
databases, but for this particular problem an object database seems a
better fit. Can you recommend one for Cocoa applications? Can you
relate your experiences setting up and using them?
I want something to store and access large numbers of objects (some
datasets might be > 2,000,000) based on Guibas and Stolfi's Quad-Edge
data structure. Here are my current structures:
@interface PRPoint : NSObject {
int pointId;
double x, y, z;
}
@interface PRQuadEdge : NSObject {
int edgeId;
PRQuadEdge *oNext, *oPrevious, *dNext, *dPrevious;
PRPoint *origin, *destination;
int leftFace, rightFace;
}
Thanks for any info.
Philip
