Hi guys
in the past marco did a bridge to database for metadescribed but since famix was not regular we could not get famix models in databases. So I would be interested to know if there is an ongoing effort to do that? Because this would be a real plus for FameDescribed models. May be using Glorp and I was thinking that this would be good also to get all the source code of pharo in a db using Ring. And get Torch there too.
Stef,
are there any specific requirements on the db? Is this for long time storage of a lot of things or just to extend the main memory for a definite amount of time? What will be the main actions to do? Searching for symbols/methods/class names or traversing stuff?
In case you want to add over time a lot of code and want to have general search capabilities that can be stored in a central location it might be a good idea to ask gemstone to sponsor a full license and install this somewhere in inria. Or do I missing the point?
