Heh. Yes. They've found that the best way to store heirarchical data
is in a heirarchy.
Anyway, thanks for responding. Repository:: is not a bad idea. I
think the work I'm currently doing would fall under the name
Repository::Simple at this point, though it might fit in better with
the ::Lite crowd better since the idea is pretty tightly bound up with
XML and ::Lite seems to be preferred there. That and its got quite a
few packages to be considered "simple."
At this point, I'm working on what I hope is a one-JAPH job in a month
or two in my spare time by rewiring File::System. It will then be a
functional Pure Perl implementation of some of the core ideas behind
JSR 170 Level 1, but the API will bear no particular resemblance.
Doing this suits my own nefarious purposes best.
I've done the overall design, gotten most of the tests written, and
I've rearranged and refactored much of the code, but I've got a long
way to go before all my tests pass.
Cheers,
Sterling
