Yes. Stuff stored in files has to be parsed when you read it out of files.
- sklogic 12y agoAnd how exactly RDBMS crap could help with parsing? Mind parsing a C++ source file with your RDBMS?
- SamReidHughes 12y agoThe grandparent was talking about the serialization and parsing of the data that you'd be storing in flat files, not parsing of C++ files. Work that you avoid by using a DBMS.
- sklogic 12y agoParsing text files is not a problem at all. Never been a problem. And there are far too many benefits of having flat text streams vs. some inaccessible stupid binary ad hoc formats hidden inside some enterprisey RDBMS guts.
