  • Method for providing for persistence of java classes where the persistence semantics may be orthogonal to the class definition
    Patent number: 6505211
    Abstract: A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for providing for persistence of Java™ objects. A Java™ object is instantiated from its corresponding Java™ class definition and then loaded into a Java™ virtual machine. The class definition corresponding to the Java™ object can be derived using either the Java™ Reflection API. Once the class definition is derived, it can be used to inspect the contents of the Java™ object. A structured type instance is then generated from the inspected contents of the Java™ object, wherein the structured type instance is stored in a column of a table of a relational database managed by a relational database management system. As a result of these steps, the Java™ object is persistently stored in the database, yet the persistence semantics for storing the object are not specified as part of the class definition of the object, which means that the persistence semantics are orthogonal to the class definition.
