Was wondering if you could incorporate commands to write Memblocks to and read Memblocks from files (as you would strings, bytes, integers etc).?

If, as it looks, support for Sqlite3 is some way off (if at all) the above two commands would help, A LOT?

any chance?

We're trying to keep all of the feature requests here:
http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=212232&b=41
That way Paul can see them all when he has time vs. scouring the forums where they'll get buried quickly.

@ Markus - thanks - but I was envisaging being able to write and read memblocks from file i/o.

@ Naphier - apologies - I will post this, my request for Sqlite3 and for GUI at your link....

@ Markus,

No, was envisaging multiple memblocks within a file.

So, you would be writing a number of memblocks in to a file i/o just like you would write a string with write string.

So, the commands would be Write Memblock and Read Memblock...

... hope that makes sense...

hmm,
make not sense at all, because if you write binary a memblock
the file should contain the type and length for each at read.
but something like id=ReadMemBlock(fileid,bytecount) WriteMemBlock(id,offset,bytecount,fileid) is ok.
with the current commands its possible but i understand also
if everybody get this funktions provided from agk is better.
