I needed a very simple way of storing the state of my .Net application across restarts. My requirements were:
- very simple to use
- thread safe
- no database setup
- high performance is not required
I belive the
PersistentDictionary<TKey, TValue> class should do the job, because it is a drop-in replacement for
Dictionary<TKey,TValue>, it follows the SyncRoot pattern for thread safety and only requires a simple file on the disk. It is not battle tested yet, but I will be using it soon.
