State serialization

Hi list,

Hi list,

What about modifying something like Apache Tuscany?  it already works with Java and C++, no reason a binding for Amber couldn't be written.  Adding support for persisting object maps in a TupleSpace such as Blitz would be useful as well.

I'm looking for something similar to Fuel, not as powerful but that can at least serialize a simple object graph and materialize it back later on.

That'd be a great plus for Ludus, as it'd make saving and loading games a breeze.

Thanks in advance,

Bernat.

Tuscany SCA/SDO has also been ported to PHP, the methodology used in porting the C++ infrastructure might be useful (the Java version was an original implementation, not a port):

http://pecl.php.net/package/SCA_SDO

Here is the Tuscany SDO main overview:   http://tuscany.apache.org/sdo-overview.html

The big advantages of SCA/SDO over just serializing using something like JSON is the ability to generate model based transforms in native code (saving vast amounts of repetitive coding) and accurate, dynamic validation of changes to data in a disconnected model.  (Try using REST and JSON to do any complex changes involving back end data and validation becomes a major problem ->  it gets difficult to keep what the representation in fact represents sorted out even conceptually, and much worse in the client side JS).

Hello,

You could look at my little app:
https://github.com/vicnet/benevoles

There is a FdJStockage class in Benevoles package that do the job.
You have to add a fromJSON message in class you want to serialize and sometime a asJSON when auto jsonify is not correct.

I do it quickly so not a good code (not think to be reused as is). Comment (sometime) are in french.

Serialization is done on localStorage (or just sessionStorage if you want)..
