That's what I thought you had planned to do.

My objection stands. A table in a database is not a file.

There would be an association between the name passed to CF_OPEN and an SQL table with that same name.

If I understand your proposal (and I may not), my objection is that you don't intend to associate the name passed to CF_OPEN or CF_CREATE to a like-named file in the host filesystem.

I don't understand.  What I am proposing to create is something that conforms with the APL Annex standard.  It will be implemented on top of Elias' SQL interface.  It will be implemented in a way that is also cooperative with the design and intend of SQL (since that is what it rides on).  What part of it is not a component file system?

Not at all. What you're proposing to create is not a component file implementation.
