Bang your head against the wall several hundred times and stand on your head. You now have the perspective of an Object Oriented Designer. It will turn your world upside down and challange every notion you have about relational databases.Quote:

Speaking as one who has tried and failed, I would say Jeff is spot on. It's a complete change of world view, which beat me (I'd say "paradigm shift" if it still meant anything after years of misuse). Any future attempt I would make would have to be far away from day-to-day non-OO distractions (a desert island or 6 months in prison).
One piece of advice I had was to use a language that was pure OO (I tried SmallTalk) otherwise you risk just writing Fortran in a different dialect. I avoided that by writing nothing . . . .
