ABSTRACT:
A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for cataloging datastore characteristics. A computerized system in accordance with the principles of the present invention includes an external non-object-oriented datastore and a class definition tool that captures a database description associated with the datastore, captures a record layout associated with the datastore, associates the database description with the record layout to define a specification for the datastore, and augments the datastore specification to constrain use of the datastore by datastore persistent objects. The class definition tool stores the datastore specification in a catalog.
