Is it supposed to work with D2010??

It would be nice if DORM supported CoC.
For exemple: Consider this class:
type
  TCustomer = class
  public
    property Id: Integer read FId write FId;
    property Name: String read FName write FName;
    property Age: Integer read FAge write FAge;
  end;

The framework could assume that this class is mapped to a table called 
CUSTOMER, and the properties are mapped to fields called ID, NAME and AGE. The 
only mapping would be to inform the primary key field.

For cases where the programmer doesn't want to follow this convention (maybe on 
legacy databases), he can simply do the manual mapping as we already do today

I would implementing mapping by attributes on DORM
and i see that are mixing on dorm.cfg

{
  "persistence": {...},
  "mapping":    {...}
}

I think that this should be splitted in:

dorm.cfg
dorm.map

So i can continue using dorm.cfg to things about connection and strategies, and 
dorm.map we can use or no (when using attributes).

Support for mapping classes using attributes instead of an external json 
mapping.

Maybe there will be situations where a mapping is dificult/impossible to 
express via attributes, but for these cases the programmer can always use the 
standard json mapping. As for the most cases, I think a good set of attributes 
will do the job much better than the json mapping.

For exemple, this class:

type
  TCustomer = class
  private
    FId: Integer;
    FName: String;
    FAge: Integer;
  public
    property Id: Integer read FId write FId;
    property Name: String read FName write FName;
    property Age: Integer read FAge write FAge;
  end;

Could be mapped this way:
type
  [Table('CUSTOMER')]
  TCustomer = class
  private
    [PrimaryKey]
    [Column('ID')]
    FId: Integer;
    [Column('NAME')]
    FName: String;
    [Column('AGE')]
    FAge: Integer;
  public
    property Id: Integer read FId write FId;
    property Name: String read FName write FName;
    property Age: Integer read FAge write FAge;
  end;

And if http://code.google.com/p/delphi-orm/issues/detail?id=5 got implemented, 
the class with it's complete mapping would be reduced to:
type
  TCustomer = class
  private
    [PrimaryKey]
    FId: Integer;
    FName: String;
    FAge: Integer;
  public
    property Id: Integer read FId write FId;
    property Name: String read FName write FName;
    property Age: Integer read FAge write FAge;
  end;

How u dont have a forum yet, i dont know where put this message, then i will 
put here ok?

I whould like see a 3tier system sample. Can you show us?

Remove this message and send me a mail if u think better!

Remove TdormCollection. I want to be free to use TObjectList<T>. No 
framework-specific code should affect my BOs.
