Jb in a nutshell

Here are two interviews in French I gave after my talk at Microsoft’s TechDays in Paris.

It has been the best way for me to realize that I really need an haircut. Now.

My friend Patrice and his team are uploading all their interviews here.

It’s been five days since I’m back from Hong-Kong, where I was attending the db4o Developer Conference, and I had wonderful time there. After such a nice trip, it’s really hard to be excited by the idea of returning home, in Mulhouse, France.

You’re welcome to visit my flickr set for this trip

Now I have to catch up with work, pending patches, and life :)

My good friend Patrice interviewed my CEO, Christof Wittig during the db4o RoadShow. It’s a very nice introduction to what is db4o, and to how we are working on it. Go see the video!

I’ve very thrilled to announce the release today of db4o 6.0, our brand new release.

Some lucky folks have seen at the Mono Meeting some bits of what’s new in it. Rodrigo and I’ve been mainly busy bringing some love to the public API, to make it look like a real .net/Mono library. And now that’s what it really is.

using Db4objects.Db4o;
using Db4objects.Db4o.Query;

class Test
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        using (IObjectContainer store = Db4oFactory.OpenFile("test.yap"))
        {
            IQuery q = store.Query();
            q.Constrain(typeof(Person));

            foreach (Person p in q.Execute())
            {
                Console.WriteLine (p);
            }
        }
    }
}

Here is the sample extracted from my blog post where I describe all the changes.

That’s the release I’ve been the more excited with. You can feel that it’s all packed with love. Go give it a try.
