Record keeping [message #51909] Mon, 11 December 2006 14:32

Hello,

I'm looking for an efficient backend for serializing the records in a
hashtable. I currently save and restore the entire hashtable, but I
actually need to access it record by record, only reading and writing
to individual records. I also would like the ability to lock a record
to allow for concurrent access to the hashtable across networked
drives.

I could use save files to represent each record and use the filename as
the index. Does anyone have any better ideas? Is there a solution
already out there?

I feel that it would be overkill to use data miner. Data miner is
expensive and requires setting up a TCP/IP service, introducing a
single point of failure. I've heard about the Java ODBC interface, but
I am forbidden to modify the JRE on the target platform.

Robbie
