db4o class model transient field

Question

I am using db4o as DBMS and I have a question:

Is there any way to specify that I do not want to store a field from the model class in the database?

Something similar to @Transient annotation when working with relational databases?

Answer 1

Just use the Java built in transient marker:

private transient String myField;

Or is there a special reason why you cannot use it?

Answer 2

Also static Java fields are not automatically persisted by DB4O:
