Are there any good ORMs (preferably JPA implementations) that support SQLite (on Android)?

Question

I found a post from a while ago that addresses a similar question but I think it's a bit outdated. I realize implementations of JPA tend to be more on the heavy/dense side, so if you know of any lightweight (non-JPA) ORMs I'll most certainly appreciate your input. I did see the answer about ActiveAndroid in the other post and am curious to know if anyone tried it out.

Answer 1

Regarding JPA implementations, there is at least a third party Dialect for SQLite for Hibernate. I'm not 100% sure but EclipseLink seems to be an option too (although SQLite is not officially supported).

But for Android development, I would definitely check ActiveAndroid.

Just in case, here are some other alternatives: jPersist, Ebean, Dreamsource ORM (have a look at the announcement on TSS).

Answer 2

ORMLite has recently released the 3.2 version which makes calls to the native Android OS database APIs to support its ORM functionality. Love to get some feedback from more Android developers.
