This is certainly intriguing. .NET has moved steadily in the opposite direction with Linq-to-Sql classes, followed by the Entity Framework which is now the default. I wasn't even aware that this school of thought advocating the opposite direction existed.
- misterjangles 13y agoMy first introduction to ORMs was hibernate. I immediately loved the idea but to be honest it can be extremely frustrating to get things done - especially if you are good at writing SQL already. It can feel like handcuffs! I kinda suspect that started the whole anti-ORM thing in response to the ridiculous complexity of some frameworks. I still use ORMs but I've decided that it has to be a light approach that doesn't try to totally hide the SQL code from you.
