JPOX 1.1 provides the second generation of JPOX. JPOX version 1.1 raises the bar to encompass the complete JDO 2.0 specification providing full compliance with that specification passing the JDO2 TCK. More explicitly this involves the standardisation of the O/R Mapping aspects of JDO (for RDBMS datastores), extensions to the query mechanism, and the provision of user-oriented attach/detach facilities.

If you are new to JDO you should first familiarise yourself with JDO basics and then move on to The JPOX Tutorial. The Tutorial demonstrates the basic concepts of getting a simple JDO-enabled application up and running. You can also look at one of the many worked examples available in the same section as the Tutorial (accessible from the header area).

To use JPOX 1.1 efficiently, you should make use of the Preparation, O/R Mapping and Runtime links in the header area, which document the features within this release of JPOX.

Be aware that from JPOX 1.1.2 onwards all JPOX jars are also OSGi compliant bundles meaning that you can, in principle, deploy them into an OSGi container.

If you have any problems, or questions, regarding this version of JPOX please refer them to our Forum.
