摘要:
A unique formatting scheme for object-relational mapping allows disparate applications that adopt the scheme to seamlessly access data in disparate relational databases. The formatting scheme contemplates a common format that conveys the mapping information through (i) attributes embedded with code objects, and (ii) an external mapping source. Adoption of the common format can result in several advantages for network-based client-server operations: (i) Software developers can continue programming in their existing languages. (ii) Data servers from various vendors can also continue to be developed and managed in the vendors' core programming languages. (iii) Vendors that employ client applications which have adopted the common format can consistently use various data warehouses without incurring customization costs.

摘要:
The subject disclosure pertains to systems and methods that facilitate retrieval of data. In particular, an application defined data shape can regulate loading of data for use in an object relational mapping system, enabling the object-oriented application to access data in a relational data base system. Data shapes define policies that control data retrieval, enabling efficient data loading. A data shape allows users to declaratively specify a set of policies to be applied to all queries associated with the data shape. In particular, data shapes can include policies that control eager loading. In addition, data shapes can also include filtering policies intended to reduce or limit data retrieved from a relational database.

A group join query facilitates navigation of relationships (e.g., one-to-many or many-to-one) across a plurality of data collections. Such a query operator produces nested or hierarchical results that capture the arguments passed thereto. If desired, the nested results can be flattened to simulate conventional relational database results.
摘要:
Systems and methods that enable consistent navigation (for a database and memory environment) in object relational mapping. This typically ensures fidelity of object graph via restrictions on collections of persistent objects (e.g., entity sets, entity refs . . . ). Moreover, a tracking component can detect changes as they occur, and only a copy of the objects that have changed can be created, to optimize operation.

The subject disclosure pertains to systems and methods for supporting null capabilities for general purpose programming languages. Low level, runtime support for a nullable type is provided to ensure consistency and coherency. An execution component restricts support of the nullable type to programming language types that lack a null capability. The execution component may also provide support for conversion between the nullable type and a reference type.
摘要:
A compiler supporting a language in which selected semantic objects are represented as data objects. The data objects may be used in multiple ways to expand the capabilities of the programming language. Data objects may be passed to applications and used to create executable instructions for that application. In this way, instructions written in the native language of the compiler may be used to control applications that accept programs in a language inconsistent with the native language of the compiler. The syntax checking and variable binding capabilities of the compiler may be used for those instructions that will be executed by an application separate from the object code generated by the compiler. The semantic objects represented as data objects may be selected based on express operations included in the source code or may be based on implicit type conversion.
