Why does TopLink use runtime reflection?
• How does TopLink support Oracle’s grid computing initiative? TopLink allows applications to be developed and enhanced flexibly, to fit into a service-oriented architecture. By enabling loose coupling between the application and persistent data, TopLink helps developers optimize their applications for the grid. In addition, TopLink provides crucial persistent functionality used in applications and other Oracle development frameworks. • Does TopLink comply with the JDO (JSR-012) specification? No, TopLink does not implement the complete JDO 1.0 specification. Although support for some of the JDO API was provided in past releases of TopLink, this API is deprecated in 10.1.3 and will be removed in a future release. • How do I configure my environment to work with TopLink? After installing TopLink, you must configure your development system to use the TopLink classes, as well as allow TopLink to access the core Java classes, Java virtual machine (JVM), and your domain classes.
