Big Changes Coming to HiveDB

There are some big changes coming to the hive interface. If you look in at trunk code you’ll see that all of getConnection and getJdbcDaoSupport now return collections instead of single connections. This is for two reasons

1. To support secondary indexes that can resolve to multiple records, like index by name or by type
2. To allow records to be replicated within your application

The trunk code will be changing rapidly over the next few weeks so if you want use the existing Hive interface or go through any of the tutorials on this site use the last stable branch /tags/0.9.1.
svn://svn.hivedb.org/hivedb/tags/0.9.1

More detailed updates and explanations coming soon…
