I have been tasked with identifying promising technologies for future
software development of applications in manufacturing (does this
sound at all familiar? :-). As such, I am considering OOPL's as well
as OODBMS's. The number of C++ products in both areas indicates a
significant trend. While I am very impressed by Eiffel, I would very
much like to have OO database capability without the impedance mis-match
problem of 2 langauges. Does anyone know of an OO database that uses
Eiffel? Note that I am not particularly interested in relational
databases.
