Greetings I am so very new to FP and just signed up to Clean. I hung out around Haskelites forever wondering if they ever got around to the real world, then discovered Clean and the I/O library! Ive died and gone to software-heaven.
But that is tempered by what I still want (we're never satisfied, right?). I want a development environment in which any type, function or value can be persisted without any fuss. OK operations would include: OPEN, and CLOSE: just housekeeping. ROOT might be needed to link code to DB. START TRANSACTION, and END TRANSACTION because I can't see a system understanding what should go inside a transaction and what should not. But other than these exceptions the compiler and GC would generate any additional code required to "make it so". Many current projects implement such concepts with an underlying RDBMS. God forbid CLEAN would stoop to such. It seems so logical to use a graph database for the store. Ive been researching many emerging commercial and experimental products and believe the Hypergraph project using Berkeley DB may be the best fit. http://www.kobrix.com/hgdb.jsp So is there anyone with a Hypergraph interface library? And what are the limitations of using a Java interface? Anyone implementing real world Transparent Persistence for CLEAN written in CLEAN? QuestionMark
