Hi All,
Am wondering what others have determined is the best way to develop
with Frontbase and WebObjects. I've always used Stored Procedures in
times past, now that I'm coming up to speed with WO, I see that this
tool allows several different ways to fetch data including the use of
Cache.
This is strictly my opinion. That is, I don't have any experience one
way or the other to back this up (well only a little).
Try to write your app in such a way that you never need to be aware
of the database. In other words, try to avoid using any of the fetch
APIs.
Get all your data through relationship traversals and in-memory
filtering.
Of course, sometimes the database is the only way to do things. But if
you
really on the database too much then you're missing out on a lot of
what EOF
offers. Stored procedures would be an example of relying on the RDBMS
too much.
