Practical Case Study of a Web-Based Tutor Payment System

Abstract

The emerging use of object-relational databases with Web technologies has only recently begun. This chapter discusses a practical realization of an application using this technology. The aim is to show readers how to construct a full application from a design using object-oriented features up to the implementation. In this chapter, we highlight important or difficult stages with an emphasis on the mapping of object design into Oracle 8i and the use of stored procedures with the extended features for objects manipulation of Oracle 8i. This enables developers to construct professional Web applications achieving a high modularity and evolution capacity with an accelerated development phase in comparison with the traditional approach.
