Hello,

I'm on the search for file mapping library. I know Win32 has a file mapping functionality, but this doesn't help me for the Unux/Linux community and I know I maybe able to write one my own. (Why reinvent the wheel?) But is their a MIT license file mapping library out their thats cross platform? My project granted will be fine with 4GB RAM machines for small scale projects (32bit), maybe 90GB RAM servers(64bit) if we are talking big data, but supposed someone wanted to go the inexpensive route and do clustering with my application. It will need to use the HD (slow) as means to store data for the program (which maybe a lot of read and writes) if we are talking 5GB to 10GB of data required to be stored.

If someone can give tips or point me in the right direction, that would be amazing, thank you!

I'm sorry frob,

it's a nice library, but it's not what I'm looking for exactly. (I should have been more specific) I'm looking to basically store records like a RDBM or like MySQL. Where I'll need to constantly require to be able find data, and or write it from small chunks to large chunks in a file/vector array.

You might have a look at mman. It's a small library to provide an mmap-compatible API on Windows.
