Abstract

See full text

A computer system and method for updating an object stored in a container. A container stored on a storage device includes a plurality of objects being ordered from a first object to a last object. One of the objects in the container is selected for updating and is read from the container into a computer memory where it is edited. Next, each of the objects ordered in the container after the selected object is moved to a new location within the container so that the selected object is overwritten. The container is then truncated after the last moved object. The edited selected object is then written from the memory and appended to the container.
