Abstract
The Microsoft Repository is an object-oriented repository that
ships as a component of Visual Basic (Version 5.0). It includes
a set of ActiveX interfaces that a developer can use to define
information models, and a repository engine that is the under-
lying storage mechanism for these information models. The
repository engine sits on top of a SQL database system.
The repository is designed to meet the persistent storage needs
of software tools. Its two main technical goals are:
- compatibility with Microsoft's existing ActiveX object
architecture consisting of the Component Object Model (COM)
and Automation and
- extensibility by customers and independent software vendors
who need to tailor the repository by adding functionality to
objects stored by the repository engine and extending infor-
mation models provided by Microsoft and others.
This paper explains how the Repository attains these goals by
providing an object-oriented database (OODB) architecture based
on Microsoft's binary object model (COM) and type system of
Visual Basic (Automation).
