StreamString

Simple storage of data and data structures in streams using UTF8 strings with checksum and fault/noise tolerance.

The software is in a pre-pre alpha stage right now, but it is usable. The interface is undergoing a major rewrite using a result pattern instead of exceptions (exceptions will possibly be optionally enabled in the result pattern though).

This unit is written for FreePascal V3.2 or later. I may update it to also support Delphi, but for now i use the Freepascal generics.

Features

Stores/retrieves data in Modern Pascal streams
Fault tolerance using sync markers and checksums
Generics makes for relative compact code
Do not rely on exceptions but rather uses a result pattern similar to Rust (w/o exceptions)
Traps and converts exceptions from runtime library and streams to a result pattern
Allows for forward and backward compatible records/structs
Extensive item tagging support (tags for e.g items and usertypes)
Variant based such that an unknown filestructure can be read and parsed
