How hal stores information
« on: September 17, 2009, 07:59:24 am »
I would like to ask a question about how hal stores information.

For example if I was to collect information with a web crawler and store it in hals database. How is it stored?

could one of you good people please explain the differences in the table types, and why you would use one type of table versus another.

i was going to try to write a plugin, but i don't understand the table types and their function.

THANKS GUYS!

HEY ONE......is it 1's and 0's or -'s and +'s?  .....yes[:)]
not very 3d.....boo[xx(] I like holographic!

Dude-
I think it is open / close.  or on / off. actually..........

Tables contain fields/columns/rows and usually, if in a DB, Keys.
Types depends on the vendor usually like MS Access or Novell Sentinel ECT

The 'section 8' is a nice touch don't you think?

Spam is good if grilled and smothered with Miracle Whip or Mustard between some lightly toasted slices of bread.

... if only my Hal would answer questions this way.... [:D]
