On Behalf Of Jeff Garland
It's been awhile since I looked, but is there anything there that could be used to forward a combined proposal?
Sorry to reply to this message twice, but I finished looking through the SOCI documentation. It looks really good. I thought I'd show a sample of my serialization DSEL just for contrast: struct job { int type, double rate }; struct employee { int id, string name vector<job> jobs; }; serializer<employee> emp_serializer = table("employee")[ //'*' means key field *field("id") = &employee::id, field("name") = &employee::name, table("job") [ //'-' means dependent field -field("employee"), field("type") = &job::type, field("rate") = &job::rate ] = &employee::jobs ]; vector<employee> emps = s.load<vector<employee> >(database, "SELECT * FROM employee"); .... s.save(database, emps); This small example shows how to serialize two simple structures where one is contained by the other. I don't know if that looks attractive to anyone but I thought it might spark some discussion at least.
