I have managed to get about 75% of the ISAM specification put together. Most of the logic is fairly simple and I will probably have an alpha of the basic functionality put together by the end of January. Having had a bit of a play already, it will probably go together in under 3000 lines of code without the added bells and whistles, or the toolset.
The use of scopeing, flexible arrays and those nifty break to array functions make the whole thing pretty simple compared with the stuff of the early 80's.
I may take a look at the BerkleyDB source, but I really am running shy of using that approach now.
I'll get back with progress and development documentation once things are settled (in between writing a couple of papers for publication. Sheesh!)
