  17. Project description
  18.  
  19. dojox.storage provides a JavaScript abstraction for persistent storage
  20. as well as pluggable implementations which typically use native browser
  21. extensions (e.g. Flash player, Gears)
  22.  
  23. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  24. Dependencies:
  25.  
  26. FlashStorageProvider requires the Flash player
  27. GearsStorageProvider requires the Gears extension
  28. LocalStorageProvider does not require any plugins but will run only in certain
  29. browsers (see below)
  30. BehaviorStorageProvider does not require any plugins but will run only in IE 5+
  31. CookieStorageProvider has no requirements
  32. The various Air*StorageProviders require Adobe's AIR software
  33.  
  34. The open source mtasc compiler (www.mtasc.org) is needed to build the
  35. ActionScript into SWF format.  The SWF object is maintained within svn, so
  36. this step is only necessary if Storage.as is modified.  A sample build script
  37. is provided (buildFlashStorage.sh)
