Karvonite 1.0

Karvonite is a persistence framework for the .NET Framework 2 and it focuses on the manipulation and persistence of .NET objects. This technology will provide a new direction for how small to midsize applications can store and deploy data.
Karvonite is not an O/R mapping tool for a very good reason. There is no relational world to map to. In Karvonite, object data is persisted to an object library.
Karvonite persistence framework is well-suited for creating document centric applications (i.e., a word processor, a game-level editor, game editing tools, configuration files), storing game data, and other kind of applications where XML files are not enough and the horsepower of a SQL engine is unnecessary.
Main features:
- Non-invasive to your code
- Visually define which classes and properties (in your code) you want to persist Supports the .NET Compact Framework
- Requires no interfaces or base classes for persisting objects
- Supports most of the basic CLR types
- Easy deployment
- Framework API with gradual learning curve and very low entry point
- Future support for the Microsoft XNA Framework
