# The DBM class of the ruby std-lib provides wrappers for Unix-style
# dbm or Database Manager libraries. The exact library used depends
# on how ruby was compiled. Its any of the following: ndbm, bdb,
# gdbm or qdbm.

module Irc
class Bot
class Registry

  # This class provides persistent storage for plugins via a hash interface.
  # The default mode is an object store, so you can store ruby objects and
  # reference them with hash keys. This is because the default store/restore
  # methods of the plugins' RegistryAccessor are calls to Marshal.dump and
  # Marshal.restore,
  # for example:
  #   blah = Hash.new
  #   blah[:foo] = "fum"
  #   @registry[:blah] = blah
  # then, even after the bot is shut down and disconnected, on the next run you
  # can access the blah object as it was, with:
  #   blah = @registry[:blah]
  # The registry can of course be used to store simple strings, fixnums, etc as
  # well, and should be useful to store or cache plugin data or dynamic plugin
  # configuration.
  #
  # WARNING:
  # in object store mode, don't make the mistake of treating it like a live
  # object, e.g. (using the example above)
  #   @registry[:blah][:foo] = "flump"
  # will NOT modify the object in the registry - remember that Registry#[]
  # returns a Marshal.restore'd object, the object you just modified in place
  # will disappear. You would need to:
  #   blah = @registry[:blah]
  #   blah[:foo] = "flump"
  #   @registry[:blah] = blah
  #
  # If you don't need to store objects, and strictly want a persistant hash of
  # strings, you can override the store/restore methods to suit your needs, for
  # example (in your plugin):
  #   def initialize
  #     class << @registry
  #       def store(val)
  #         val
  #       end
  #       def restore(val)
  #         val
  #       end
  #     end
  #   end
  # Your plugins section of the registry is private, it has its own namespace
  # (derived from the plugin's class name, so change it and lose your data).
  # Calls to registry.each etc, will only iterate over your namespace.
