Is PetaPoco deprecated? should I use NPoco now? (2013 Q3)

I'm starting some new projects and I want to use PetaPoco (I've used it before in other projects) or NPoco.

I know NPoco is a branch of PetaPoco (based on v4.x), and PetaPoco is now in v5.x.

But it seems that althought NPoco is PetaPoco + some new features, the code bases are now a little bit divergent and changes to PetaPoco cannot easily be integrated in NPoco and viceversa.

Is PetaPoco still in development or is it deprecated/in maintenance mode? Will all future development done in NPoco?

Solution

  • PetaPoco is more like "Finished" than deprecated. It's fine for me that way. No need to add bloat to an efficient product.

    That said, if you need a more active product, you should surely go for the NPoco road.
