[REBOL] Object "Serialization"
From: gjones05::mail::orion::org at: 22-Feb-2001 14:07
Hi,
In a separate thread, a question was asked about serialization of
objects by Sharriff Aina. I had a similar question in mind and was
hoping for an answer. Since the thread had gotten a bit off topic, I'm
reposting essentially the same question in this separate thread.
To date, when I want to save an object, I've been using 'save. Then
when I need the object back, I use 'read and then 'do the object.
For example:
data: make object! [
name: "Joe"
]
save %my-object.r data
;... later i need the object ...
data: read %my-object.r
data: do data
print data/name
>>
Joe
It works, but I am wondering is there a "better" way?
