To provide the method and device for efficiently generating a virtual file system in a computer memory.
The virtual file system generating method extracts a data file from a file system, generates a snapshot from the extracted data file and converts the snapshot into an object data file. The converted object data file is related to one or more other object data files. A snapshot can be also generated by connecting the extracted data file to one or more other data files. In the method, a pair of assembler instructions including an instruction for reserving a space for data of a data file in an object data file and capable of generating an object data file from the snapshot are generated and converted into an object data file including a reserved space.
