Abstract
A system and method for efficient storage and retrieval of fragmented data using a pseudo linear dynamic byte array is provided. In accordance with an embodiment, the system comprises a database driver which provides access by a software application to a database. The database driver uses a dynamic byte array to enable access by the application to data in the database, including determining a size of a required data to be stored in memory, and successively allocating and copying the required data into the dynamic byte array as a succession of blocks. The data stored within the succession of blocks can then be accessed and provided to the application.
