Come on Bryce don't make me taunt you, causing Ben to hate me MORE! You are a strong OO proponent. -- [link\|mailto:greg@gregfolkert.net\|greg], [link\|http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry\|REMEMBER ED CURRY!] @ *i_wethey* Give a man a match, he'll be warm for a minute.

Post #157,085 by tablizer 5/26/04 4:17:57 PM Reply	The question that launched a thousand arguments I keep saying that OO reinvents databases in app code. Thus, are OO programs really databases or are databases with code really OO? This issue came up before but nobody could agree on a definition of OO in order to determine for once and for all. The biggest seperation between OO and TOP is that OO wants to use code (text) to make "records" (aka "objects/classes") and use pointer-hopping to navigate relationships (aka "navigational database") rather than relational algebra. Reduce dependence on text-code and pointer-based navigation, and TOP and OO would not be that much different. ________________ oop.ismad.com
