A technology to be shipped in MacOsx 10.4 Tiger, aiding RapidApplicationDevelopment, particularly in the creation of PersistentObjects:
Core Data is promised to include:
- A SqLite database server distributed with MacOsx
- An API to create bindings between objects and persistent counterparts in the SQLite database
- An API to store these bound data objects as XML, as a "binary format", or in a SQLite database
(all of this sounds a bit like CocoaBindings for data)
Expect integration with AppleSpotlight.
