Re: Non SQL databases

["Luciano de Souza" <luchyanus@...>]

Oh! Now I understand. I will not change the source code. If I have a table 
in the Module1.lua, I can't change the parameters there. What I can do it's 
to create a text representation for tables, in order words, to serialize 
tables and after, to save it in a file as 'records.dat'. It's nice too. With 
Json, I recently understood how to do it. It's good, but what I understood 
before is that Lua would allow the change of a Lua script in run-time. I 
don't know if it were possible, it wouldn't more difficult than saving in a 
different files, but it has pointed out for me because it's different. I 
never heard about  a language allows something like that.
Well, your tips are very good and I am also enthusiastic about the features, 
the several features Javier also has indicated me. Thank you Javier! Thank 
you Michal!
