Don't wait for it :) I was just looking for something that lets
me produce code and parse and execute it afterwards. I struggle
a lot using Glorp and therefor being bound the some degree to
SQL semantics. My hope was that storing code in the database and
executing it on retrieval could solve a lot of problems. I still
think this is feasible. But if the setup is too complicated (I 
don't have much time) and is not mature I can't rely on it. 

I was not very clear in my intention. I was more looking for an
easy way to serialize/deserialize objects. I'll do it for now
using a textual interpretation of 

self class asString,':',self id 

If I find some time I'll have look at it because this is a very
interesting topic. 


thanks,

Norbert
