CL-SWAP-FILE Copyright (c) 2008 Sami Makinen

Swap file was originally designed for cl-btree to manage disk blocks. Swap file provides mechanism to create a stream for reading and writing and the stream is automatically converted to a managed sequence of disk blocks. See the unit tests for more detail.

Swap file uses cl-wal which provides simple write-ahead log for the swap file. cl-wal works as a journal providing atomicy and durability for a stored data.

Current implementation has been tested with SBCL. Project was originally at alien-consader.org and is now made available at SourceForge.

cl-swap-file depends on following projects:

• trivial-garbage
• cl-binary-file (http://cl-binary-file.sourceforge.net),
• cl-wal (http://cl-wal.sourceforge.net),

cl-swap-file no longer depends on following projects:

• cl-unit-test (http://cl-unit-test.sourceforge.net),
• cl-toolbox (http://cl-toolbox.sourceforge.net).

cl-swap-file is utilized in cl-btree and clufs projects.
