Hey all
I am writing an Object Database to run on GNU/Linux and Solaris systems
for a research project (uni).
I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to write one section of a file to disk.
To explain: I am hoping to hold the whole database in one file, and have
multiple handles open to the file at any one time. The file will be partitioned
into Blocks (which are constructs I have defined, currently continuous 64K
chunks), and I was hoping to be able to flush these blocks to the disk
individually (for efficiency and ease of implementation)
I am using the standard FILE * file handles at the moment, and using glibc/g++
to implement the code.
Also, does anyone know how many handles you can have to the one file at any
one time?
Any comments/advice appreciated.
Stephen
