Abstract
In an embodiment, a generic database application of a computer system receives a portion of input data from a database. The generic database application can communicate with the database using a variety of different database schemas. The generic database application of the computer system infers a portion of ORM metadata associated with the received input data. The computer system accesses a generic ORM query where the ORM query is configured to provide mapping information to map the input data into a graph of objects according to the database object properties included in the ORM metadata. The computer system maps the input data into a graph of objects using the database object properties included in the ORM metadata and displays an ORM object view which includes the graph of objects.
