Right. IOW - you _always_ have an object model when programming in Java
(since it is OO language). So take an example:
Let's say the purpose of an app is to allow the user to manipulate data in a
general ledger database (managed by a RDBMS).
My object model is GWT widget library (a set of classes implementing user
interface).
Do you know of any ORM tool that will allow me to "map" one to another?
No.
The use of ORM somewhat assume a separation between presentation
and data access layers.
The 1960's style of having everything in one big intertangled mess
does not fit well with ORM.
Or maybe you are saying I should design and develop _another_ class library
(an object model) and then design and develop _two_ mapping libraries (one
of them possibly based on some ORM tool) to achieve the goal?
Two independent problems:
database -> in memory model
in memory model -> display
should have two independent pieces of code.
