Re^4: use Data::Dumper to implement Object persistence

I see no C parser for Data::Dumper's output either (other than perl itself!) and no C parser for Storable's output that is independent of perl either. But then, those don't really make any claim to be anything other than intimately tied to perl.

YAML's lack of support in so many languages is, in my opinion, its biggest weakness. The lack of VB and C# implementations in particular is a Very Bad Thing. It's Very Bad because it makes XML the next best choice, and XML is Hateful.

Ah yes, the Vapourware .NET YAML implementation has been languishing on the disc drive of my laptop since last August. It still does little more than split the input into separate YAML "documents", I really should pick up on it again - I'm in danger of becoming a one person sourceforge of unfinished projects /J\	[reply]
