* HELP:
* methods:
* - fileStorage($filename) - contructor
* - error($msg) - reports an error
* - read_data() - reads data from file
* - write_data() - writes data to file
* - add_data($name, $value) - adds new value into data storage
* - get_data($name) - gets value from data storage
* - register_data($name, &$value) - adds reference into data storage
* - &get_reg_data($name) - gets reference from data storage
*
* ATTENTION:
* if you want to store data in a file it has to be accessible for writing
* by the web server. So you may need to chmod the file and change its
* access permissions.
****************************************************************************/
/*****************************************************************************
* EXAMPLE (a simple counter stored in the storage):
*
* // we create new storage and associate it with file mydata.dat:
* $storage = &new fileStorage('mydata.dat');
* $storage->read_data();
*
* // try to get counter value from storage
* $counter = $storage->get_data('counter');
*
* // if counter not found:
* if (!$counter)
* $counter = 1;
*
* // increase counter value:
* $counter++;
*
* // store counter value in the storage:
* $storage->add_data('counter', $counter)
* // save storage:
* $storage->write_data();
