Hi,
I'm newbie in Haskell, and I have some doubts... In this programming language, do we have storable values? Case affirmative, what are the storable types in Haskell, and how can I implement then...
Not entirely sure what you mean. There is a haskell typeclass called Storable, but it probably isn't what you mean. If you want persistence, serialisation, we have two options: Read/Show is simple, slow and text-based. It's very helpful for debugging but not for high performance. Data.Binary is fast, configurable and binary. That's a good solution for high-throughput persistence. If you need versioning support, then the upper layer of Binary isn't for you. But the "guts" of binary, called Get and Put, make it simple to write your own versioned persistence. Jules
