Say I'm writting a program. In this program for some reason I need to
store data somewere were I will be able to access it again. I don't
want to store it in a file because then it could be deleted by another
program or user. So, is there anyway to save data onto a computer so
that it will not apear as a file (actually idealy not apear as anything
at all), but will not get overwritten by any other program or file. If
this is OS spacific tell me because the more I think about it the more
it seems like it would be. Let me give an example of what I am looking
for:
/* getfmemloc() doesn't really exist */
/* putfmemloc() doesn't really exist */
getfmemloc(fmemloc); /* This would get data from the hard disk */
putfmemloc(fmemloc, data); /* This would put data to the hard disk at
that spot */
Is there anyway to do that (put data on to the hard disk and read it
off without using files and without having to worry about other
programs overwritting it)?
Thanks in advanced for anyone who may offer some sort of hint as to if
is this possible.
