About a month or so ago, I started working on a persisted version of the DataSet, using a random access file for a linked list and clever pointers n stuff. It worked for every data type EXCEPT for an array. As I didn't need arrays for my current project, I just said fyou and moved on.
Now I need those arrays to work and I spent the last couple of days last week trying to find the bloody bug. The data is stored as expected, I even went as far as paper and pencil debug - trying doing that with 97 objects!
Now I have found the bug. The b'tard bug. The stupid f'in b'tard votes UKIP and drinks Peroni bug.
I.
Forgot.

Bit.
Offset.
When.
Reading.
Now I can get back to taking over the world. Again.

Never met him, but I've heard he's a nice enough chap.

I've heard rumours that Sober Nagy is the same as Grumpy Nagy.

But is he also Dopey Nagy, and Sleepy Nagy?

Curious - which requirement do you have that rules out using a database instead?

The closest DB I could use would be Mongo, which I am using in places. This is in an experimental piece however and I want to try it out as it means I can get rid of some clunky conversions.

Sounds interesting! Is there a chance you will you show it to us at some point?

It's one of those 'if I can be bothered'. The idea is to take this[^] and make it persited so that it can be used to easily store and retrieve things between sessions.
In the current version of the DataSet, it can be saved to and read from a text file as well as pushed through a binary stream. What I am working on is the ability for it to work like a classic key/value store. It deserves an article, but there is a bucket load of other stuff I am working on that takes priority; sometimes people pay for this stuff.

Then I need to convert to and from XML. I happen to know what I am doing. Sometimes.

Why is it that when my manager says "we're keeping it simple and won't support x and y" I always get a chill down my spine...?
