I've been writing declares around some of the libc libraries, and in

out. Found it too difficult to write declares for Linux, from windows,
in a matter where I would want to receive updates from the community.
How's that for a run on sentence ;)
For this application, I will need to be loading up to 5000 items in a 2
dimensional array. Well 5000 in first dimension, 7 items per in 2nd
(35,000).... then parsing it and /proc out into a table (using
Einhugurs
grid)
Seems like a singly-dimensioned array of 7-ary trees would be better
(a "7-ary" tree being one whose nodes have 0-7 leaf nodes, as opposed
to a 2-ary (binary) tree.) Note that a 1-ary tree is just a linked-list
:)
That way, if you don't need all the nodes, the memory won't go to
waste.
Class SevenAryNode
Protected nodes(7) As SevenAryNode
Public Function Node(Index As Integer) As SevenAryNode
Public Sub Node(Index As Integer,Assigns theNode As SevenAryNode)
...
End Class
...
Dim myFooArray(5000) As SevenAryNode
When do you all start considering an embedded db for something like
this? In the past I've never had more than a couple hundred items in
array's.
