Talk:Simple database

From Rosetta Code

Name change?

The task seems to be about creating a database but does not use that word in the title? How about re-naming the task "Simple database". --Paddy3118 09:57, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

your are right. in fact the exercise from a book that inspired this task is also called simple database.--eMBee 10:13, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

command line interface

Presumably it does not matter if the command line interface uses a command line supplied by the application, the language or the operating system? --Rdm 11:59, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

well, one point of the task is to tie in other tasks like the use of serialization and also reading commandline options. i think building an interface on top of a REPL is worth a separate task: Readline interface (build a simple application with a readline interface.) the functionality of this program may be taken from Simple database)--eMBee 06:20, 2 November 2011 (UTC)
