cf.Objective() 2010 – Day 3

Part three of my cf.Objective 2010 series.  Again I arrived a little late today.  Just over tired.  I got to Terry Ryan’s ORM talk about half way through.  When I walked in he was talking about lazy loading, extra lazy, and eager.  He mentioned how you can actually do a eager join when you load an object which instead of running separate queries two get all of the data you need it Hibernate will create a ‘large’ join statement that will pull all of the data in one query.  This was something I hadn’t previously heard of and sounded like it might have some good uses.  He went on to talk about Caching, Event Handling and Table Generation.

Some session you might see at cf.Objective would be about Frameworks, ORM, CF integration with Flex, etc.

In this post I am summarizing the sessions I attended on the first day.
