Storing your data in Graffiti the easy way

Posted on Tuesday, March 25, 2008

I've been asked by a few people the easiest way to store your data inside Graffiti. Most people start the question with "How do I add tables to the database ....". You could do that, but it would be complicated and annoying to deploy to other users. Simply use the ObjectManager and all your code will move to any Graffiti installation with ease.

Here it is, in less than 2 minutes....

add a reference to Graffiti.Core, make an object... mark it serializable

[Serializable]
public class MyObject
{
   private string _name;
   private string _description;

   public string Name
   {
       get { return _name; }
       set { _name = value; }
   }

   public string Description
   {
       get { return _description; }
       set { _description = value; }
   }
}

instantiate and call Save..

MyObject obj = new MyObject();

ObjectManager.Save(obj, "MyObjectSettings");

retrieve it later..

ObjectManager.Get<MyObject>("MyObjectSettings");

That's it!

• Well I’ve had my itouch since October. I’ve noticed that the battery goes by supper quick when I go on safari and watch movies. Other than that my batter can last me all day… even though its set on the brightest it can get. Just limit your usage of safari or videos if you want your batter to last a while.

• I especially like the pick, "Lover, You Should've Come Over" from Grace that is reportedly integral to the production - which merges the 1990's Buckley songs with original 1590's dialogue taken from Shakespeare. Also known to be included is the more raucous, "Eternal Life," also off Buckley's sole studio release. There is no confirmation about any material from posthumous releases.

• I'm always wary of Shakespeare when modernized, not a fan of "Romeo + Juliet" or the like. The "+" sign was so clever, so modern. But this pairing has merit and could be a match made in heaven, if heaven were brimming with grievous sorrow.
