JPA lite for Android - uses OrmLite and Dagger
For information on Classy Tools and install instructions, go to our support site at www.cybersearch2.com.au/develop/classytools.html.
Classy Tools is a Lightweight Java Persistence package which builds on the OrmLite - Lightweight Object Relational Mapping Java Package so server-side standards for persistence are are now available on the client-side. Classy Tools incorporates the javax.persistence package and applies familiar JPA features such as persistence.xml for configuration, an Entity Manager and a Persistence Container.
The word "classy" means "elegant, smart, sophisticated..." which reflects the Classy Tools philosophy. The aim is to promote sound development practices to achieve in a timely manner, reponsive, reliable applications which are readily maintained and improved. Classy Tools comes with a pure Java base library, so is potentially portable to any database and operating system combination supported by OrmLite - refer http://ormlite.com/javadoc/ormlite-core/doc-files/ormlite_2.html#Database-Notes for Supported Databases.
A separate Android library provides an Android SQLite adapter and other features including an Android-specific Persistence Container and a Fast Text Search engine to support automatic search suggestions. Classy Tools binds classes using Dagger dependency injection which enhances ease of configuration and flexibility.
