which ORM to use?

There are great ORM solutions for Scala. They provide a very "Scala like" implementation.

While doing a bachelor thesis, we are currently investigating the pros and cons of this approaches.

Hi guys,

I'm new to Scala and finding out which ORM solution to use is being
really painfully task.

Basically we have, in one hand, all ORM frameworks developed for java
and using them make me fell a little bit uncomfortable, I mean, I'm
learning Scala 'cause I want a different solution from the ones
offered by the java world, so, why the heck should I continuing using
all those java ORM frameworks and continuing making things in the java
way?

What's the issue here? Is the lack of Scala "native" solution due to
the fact that it's a new whole world that didn't have the time to
build it's own solution? Or, the idea, from the beginning, is to use
java's ORM solutions?

So, whats the best aproach here?
what is the best ORM framework to use with Scala (Hibernate? EBean?, etc, etc)

While the Lift developers intend to support Mapper for a long time
going forward, their plan is to replace it with Record. With that in
mind, Mapper would not be my first choice as a Scala ORM.

While the Lift developers intend to support Mapper for a long time
going forward, their plan is to replace it with Record.  With that in
mind, Mapper would not be my first choice as a Scala ORM.

Officially, The Lift team will continue to support and enhance Mapper for as long as I'm involved with Lift, and given that I'm 46 and the Benevolent Dictator for Life, I'm hoping that Mapper will be supported for at least 30-40 years.

I apologize then for spreading misinformation. I had interpreted some
of the posts on the Lift mailing list to mean that Mapper would be
supported for a long time but was unofficially deprecated.

You should use O/R Broker of course.

Hi,Maybe a  Framework / ORM entry in the wiki would be useful ?At least to list the different solutions seen in this  thread.
I remember when I had to make system calls from Scala, I also found different ways of doing it, but no "one true path" to implement it.
Bruno

Wow, there are so many options... :D

I'll try to check them out and make a list of "why you should try" and
"why you shouldn't".

thanks again for the replies...

Actually, most of the options given are listed in a Stack Overflow question about _non_ ORM libraries to make database queries.
