Ode, a database system and environment based on the object paradigm, is discussed. Ode is defined, queried and manipulated using the database programming language O++, which is based on C++. The O++ compiler translates O++ programs into C++ programs that contain calls to the Ode object manager. The implementation of O++, the Ode object manager, and the translation of the database facilities in O++ are described. The problems encountered in the implementation and their resolutions are reviewed. >
