having to do some work to create an AI field, fork that!
If u are doing AI. Durus is probably ur best bet. In a nutshell like zodb, except entire DB is loaded in memory. http://www.mems-exchange.org/software/durus/ |

does xml count as a flat file  never used it, but an interesting idea http://www.modis.ispras.ru/sedna/Sedna is a free native XML database which provides a full range of core database services - persistent storage, ACID transactions, security, indices, hot backup. Flexible XML processing facilities include W3C XQuery implementation, tight integration of XQuery with full-text search facilities and a node-level update language. I am not sure if it is a "flat file" but if I am not mistaken, it is stored as an actual xml file |

nop lies to you, flat file is best for at most, about 10% of real-world applications, unless you're a scripter.
FTFY |

FTFY I'm gonna say something that I think will really irritate you now... There is no difference between a compiled language and a scripting language. And there are no other types of databases besides flat file databases. :-) |

You know what I mean.
Scripter vs. application developer.
Obviously there is no technical difference between the two. If you want to tell me there's no performance difference between the two, well then prepare to be mercilessly ridiculed.

LOL this should be good. Depending on subjective interpretation of the essence of your statement Lamont, you are both 100% correct and absolutely wrong   |

There is no difference between a compiled language and a scripting language. And there are no other types of databases besides flat file databases. No irritation here  Just my ass off because I think Rupert Murdoch must have ventured into the IT "News" arena, and someone believed what they heard. Your statements are wrong on every level - even on the flimsy and narrow slices of defensible logic such as: There is no difference between a compiled language and a scripting language........ Since they both execute inside of a computer But out of curiosity, was that simply fishing for a reaction or do you honestly hold these views? |

Just for giggles, let me take a shot. "Compiled and scripted languages are exactly the same." Well, since both of them eventually get to assembly and execution this is not that tough. Since all of the PHP libraries are compiled and simply linked dynamically by a "script" called a php program, it is late-linked, but precompiled. The linkage is scripted, but the executable code is compiled. Since we could go round looking at the different assembly created by different compilers and linkers, it is clear that there is no hard standard for the way code muse look when compiled, so if it's machine code when executed, it's ostensibly the same. (Bear in mind I find that argument 99% crap). "There are no other types of databases besides flat files." Well, since my flat files can be made to be fixed length, and I can build indicies pointing into them for quicker, non-serial search access, this is viable. It is assertable that the file containing a table is flat, it's just managed nicely. That things like primary keys and intertable relationships are purely bolt ons. At what point, if I built a flat-file database using a class that included code to trigger an event on the addition of a record to update some other tables because of a primary ID that was shared among other flat tables, would it go from being a flat file to a database? (Bear in mind that I find that argument about 95% crap). |

it's one of those things that's both right and wrong primarily depending on semantics and how you look at things... Its like saying that 2-1=1 is the same as (2*1)-1=1 ... you can argue about it all day, nobody will win...
