Hi, I am writing an rss/atom reader in C++. I need your help on how to decide/remember whether a particular item is read by the user.
I have completed writing some part of my program. My program takes one URL as the input and can fetch the rss/atom feeds from the servers in the Internet. It can also display the list of available item titles. Once the user selects any item, it will display the description part of that particular item. All these implementation is done. Now my problem is to remember which are all the items the user has already visited, so that i can hide them or show in a different color. What logic i can follow to remember this? Do i have to maintain a list in a file which stores all the titles that are read, or the list of time stamps of items which are read? how do i do it with atom feeds? can someone help please.. Regards, Vijay
