138=head2 WIN32 FILENAMES/DATABASE NAME MESS
139
140Perl on Win32 supports only ASCII filenames (the reason is that it abuses
141an internal flag to store wether a filename is Unicode or ANSI, but that
142flag is used for somethign else in the perl core, so there is no way to
143detect wether a filename is ANSI or Unicode-encoded). The BDB module
144tries to work around this issue by assuming that the filename is an ANSI
145filename and BDB was built for unicode support.

545=head3 VERSION CHECKING
546
547BerkeleyDB comes in various versions, many of them have minor
548incompatibilities. This means that traditional "at least version x.x"
549checks are often not sufficient.
550
551=over 4
552
553=item BDB::VERSION
554
555The C<BDB::VERSION> function, when called without arguments, returns the
556Berkeley DB version as a v-string (usually with 3 components). You should
557use C<lt> and C<ge> operators exclusively to make comparisons.
558
559Example: check for at least version 4.7.
560
561 BDB::VERSION ge v4.7 or die;
562
563=item BDB::VERSION min-version
564
565Returns true if the BDB version is at least the given version (specified
566as a v-string), false otherwise.
567
568Example: check for at least version 4.5.
569
570 BDB::VERSION v4.7 or die;
571
572=item BDB::VERSION min-version, max-version
573
574Returns true of the BDB version is at least version C<min-version> (specify C<undef> or C<v0> for any minimum version)
575and less then C<max-version>.
576
577Example: check wether version is strictly less then v4.7.

593as the request callback, and the second is called to wait until the first 672as the request callback (it should save the return status), and the second
673is called to wait until the first callback has been called (it must set
674C<$!> to the return status).
675
676This mechanism can be used to include BDB into other event mechanisms,
677such as L<AnyEvent::BDB> or L<Coro::BDB>.

598 ( 683 (
599 sub { $status = $! }, 684 sub { $status = $! },
600 sub { BDB::poll while !defined $status; $! = $status }, 685 sub { BDB::poll while !defined $status; $! = $status },
601 ) 686 )
602 } 687 }
688
689It simply blocks the process till the request has finished and then sets
690C<$!> to the return value. This means that if you don't use a callback,
691BDB will simply fall back to synchronous operations.
