This package provides a lightweight Object Relational Mapping between Java classes and SQL databases. There are certainly some much more mature packages which provide this functionality including Hibernate and iBatis. However, I wanted a simple wrapper around the JDBC functions from the Spring package and Hibernate and iBatis are significantly more complicated. The package supports natively MySQL, Postgres, Microsoft SQL Server, H2, Derby, HSQLDB, and Sqlite. It also contains initial, untested support for Oracle and DB2 can be extended to additional ones relatively easily. Contact the author if your database type is not supported.

See the documentation for more information. There is also a PDF version of the documentation. The PDF version shows the various features and bug fixes in each version.
