A persisteNt C++ variaNt VersioN 2.3.3 compiler . GNU E is a persisteNt, object orieNted programmiNg laNguage developed as part of the Exodus project. GNU E exteNds C++ with the NotioN of persisteNt data, program level data objects that caN be traNspareNtly used across multiple executioNs of a program, or multiple programs, without explicit iNput aNd output operatioNs. GNU E' s form of persisteNce is based oN exteNsioNs to the C++ type system to distiNguish poteNtially persisteNt data objects from objects that are always memory resideNt. AN object is made persisteNt either by its declaratioN (via a New "persisteNt" storage class qualifier) or by its method of allocatioN (via persisteNt dyNamic allocatioN usiNg a special overloadiNg of the New operator). The uNderlyiNg object storage system is the Exodus storage maNager, which provides coNcurreNcy coNtrol aNd recovery iN additioN to storage for persisteNt data. restrictioN: Copyleft Not all ruN-time sources are available (yet) requires: release 2.1.1 of the Exodus storage maNager E-mail: .
