Technically, the component storage is, at best, a ADS. But that's grasping at straws given that you can just store components directly in a function's stack frame. Still, the component storage isn't "the ECS" in the same way that a service injector isn't "the Clean Architecture ", even though you'll always have them in some form in each.

Now, where did I say that?

For the discussion of whether ECS is a data structure, it is, given that you previously stated that ECS was meant for storing data, and "often" contradicts that.

I haven't asserted anything about it. You did, and you have yet to prove it.

Pretty much everything stores data in someway. Which brings us back to the "kernel is a data structure in your eyes?" question from earlier. I don't think it is me who isn't making much of a point.
- CyberDildonics 6mo agoNo one knows or cares about whatever "ADS" is, injector services or 'clean architecture'. It seems like you're caught up in so much nonsense that you don't think that a class meant to store data is a data structure.
- fluffybucktsnek 6mo agoADS stands for Abstract Data Structure. ECS ain't even a class. Nothing you're saying now is making sense. Edit: checking now ADS is a too literal of a translation (English isn't my first language). The more appropriate term is ADT.
- CyberDildonics 6mo agoECS ain't even a class. ECS is an abstract term for a data structure. Have you ever programmed before?
- fluffybucktsnek 6mo ago> ECS is an abstract term for a data structure. Sources? I have cited mine for why it isn't.
- CyberDildonics 6mo agoYou want a source for saying an ecs can be implemented as a class? It's all over github.
- fluffybucktsnek 6mo agoThen, surely, you should be able to find a link to a ECS class's source easily. So where is it? Also, remember, it's not my responsibility to search to prove your arguments. Burden of proof is on the claimant, as it goes.

- fluffybucktsnek 6mo agoFunny, there are no classes named "ECS" in that link. In fact, there are no classes at all, because you didn't actually link a class source. Why push the step of searching for the class towards the reader when you could do it yourself? Wasn't it easy? I wonder why? Taking a cursory look (which is already beyond my responsibilities) at https://github.com/redxdev/ECS/blob/master/ECS.h https://github.com/redxdev/ECS/blob/master/ECS.h, by searching "class ECS" and "struct ECS" and "EntityComponentSystem" wields no results.
- CyberDildonics 6mo agoThey're ecs, some of them are wrapped in classes. Classes are just a simple programming structure. You should probably learn how to program before arguing all this stuff.
