61 // MemoryTable holds all its data in memory.
62 // It means that the data is not persistent. However, it can be copied to
63 // another table to make the data persistent.
64 // Furthermore it is a table as all other tables, so all table functions
65 // can be applied to it. Some functions (e.g. lock) won't do anything.
66 // Also all table operations like sorting, selecting, and iterating can
67 // be used.
68 //
69 // The constructor accepts a SetupNewTable object which can contain
70 // bindings of columns to any data manager. All bindings to storage
71 // managers will be replaced by a binding to the memory based storage
72 // manager <linkto class=MemoryStMan>MemoryStMan</linkto>. Also all
73 // unbound columns will be bound to MemoryStMan.
74 // Thus it is still possible that a column is bound to a virtual column
75 // engine like <linkto class=CompressComplex>CompressComplex</linkto>.
