This is what I've done for a project. I have a few data structures that are bascially dictionaries with some methods that operate on the data. When I save them to disk, I write them out to .py files as code that when imported as a module will load the same data into such a data structure. Is this reasonable? Are there any big disadvanta...
In the development of my first serious iPhone application (Meaning I'd like to actually get it out on the AppStore), I needed a good way to represent my data. Instead of going with core data, I (stupidly, I think) decided to use classes to represent my data. I created three classes, MMDot, MMShowMovement, and MMShow. The MMShowMovement ...
I'm writing a php-mysql application. The application allows the user to run a search against the database. When the search is run, if the user clicks on the back button to go back to it after examining an item brought up by it, they are asked if they would like to resend the query (it uses post). Which would rerun the search in the da...
Okay, of course it is possible, that's no issue. In my code I have multiple objects that I work with, and they need to be data persistent. To do that I've used object encoding and storing them in a data file. Such as: -(NSString *)dataFilePath { NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomai...
Let's say, I have decided to go with J(2)EE stack for my enterprise application. Now, for domain modelling (or: for designing the M of MVC), which APIs can I safely assume and use, and which I should stay away from... say, via a layer of abstraction? For example, Should I go ahead and litter my Model with calls to Hibernate/JPA API...
Does Java have (or is there a library available) that allows me to have a disk based HashMap? It doesn't need to be atomic or anything, but it will be accessed via multiple threads and shouldn't crash if two are accessing the same element at the same time. Anyone know of anything? ...
First I would like to explain why I want to use alternate Blackberry Persistance options rather than a Blackberry database itself, say SQLite. The reason is that the application i'm designing, I want it to be used in all the previous versions of Blackberry rather than just the ones having OS 5.0 or greater. Now, coming back to the actua...
Hi, I'm not really sure exactly how the question should be phrased, so please be patient if I ask the wrong thing. I'm writing an ASP.NET application using VB as the code behind language. I have a data access class that connects to the DB to run the query (parameterized, of course), and another class to perform the validation tasks - I...

First of all, here comes the load part. Structure MainStruct Dim Ans1 As String Dim Ans2 As String End Structure Dim Build As New List(Of MainStruct) ... ... ... Session("MyData") = Build The question is how can i read back the contents of the list, stored in the Session? I mean something like... Build = Session("...
I have this simple application with a couple of classes which are all related. There's one, the main one, for which there is only one instance of. I need to save save and load that using a text stream. My instructor requirement is BufferedReader to load the stream and PrintWriter to save it. But is this even possible? To persist a data ...
I loaded some app projects that I had been developing using the iPhone 3.1.3 Simulator. Now I got the 4.0 package, and for some reason when I hit the home button of the simulator to go the home screen and then go back to the app, it's in the same position as I left it. Is this now standard? What if I don't want it to do this? I'd rat...
What would you recommended re an approach to persist data for the following situation: WPF application (desktop) Will be capturing information ever second (approx) and will need to store about 5 values per second effectively. Will need to save data for up to say 1 month Usage will be both (a) real time viewing of last few hours data, +...
