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.

138object and never block. All the remaining functions all take an optional 150object and never block. All the remaining functions take an optional

140missing, then the function will be executed synchronously, and the return 152executed synchronously. In both cases, C<$!> will reflect the return value

148In the following, C<$int> signifies an integer return value, 160In the following, C<$int> signifies an integer return value,
149C<octetstring> is a "binary string" (i.e. a perl string with no character 161C<bdb_filename> is a "filename" (octets on unix, madness on windows),

153The C<SV *> types are generic perl scalars (for input and output of data 165Most C<SV *> types are generic perl scalars (for input and output of data
154values), and the C<SV *callback> is the optional callback function to call 166values).
155when the request is completed.

157The various C<DB_ENV> etc. arguments are handles return by 168The various C<DB_ENV> etc. arguments are handles return by
158C<db_env_create>, C<db_create>, C<txn_begin> and so on. If they have an 169C<db_env_create>, C<db_create>, C<txn_begin> and so on. If they have an

160for them, resulting a NULL pointer on the C level. 171for them, resulting a NULL pointer on the C level.
161 172
173The C<SV *callback> is the optional callback function to call when the
174request is completed. This last callback argument is special: the callback
175is simply the last argument passed. If there are "optional" arguments
176before the callback they can be left out. The callback itself can be left
177out or specified as C<undef>, in which case the function will be executed
178synchronously.
179
180For example, C<db_env_txn_checkpoint> usually is called with all integer
181arguments zero. These can be left out, so all of these specify a call
182to C<< DB_ENV->txn_checkpoint >>, to be executed asynchronously with a
183callback to be called:
184
185 db_env_txn_checkpoint $db_env, 0, 0, 0, sub { };
186 db_env_txn_checkpoint $db_env, 0, 0, sub { };
187 db_env_txn_checkpoint $db_env, sub { };
188
189While these all specify a call to C<< DB_ENV->txn_checkpoint >> to be
190executed synchronously:
191
192 db_env_txn_checkpoint $db_env, 0, 0, 0, undef;
193 db_env_txn_checkpoint $db_env, 0, 0, 0;

569=head3 VERSION CHECKING
570
571BerkeleyDB comes in various versions, many of them have minor
572incompatibilities. This means that traditional "at least version x.x"
573checks are often not sufficient.
574
575Example: set the log_autoremove option in a way compatible with <v.47 and
576v4.7. Note the use of & on the constants to avoid triggering a compiletime
577bug when the symbol isn't available.

584=item BDB::VERSION
585
586The C<BDB::VERSION> function, when called without arguments, returns the
587Berkeley DB version as a v-string (usually with 3 components). You should
588use C<lt> and C<ge> operators exclusively to make comparisons.
589
590Example: check for at least version 4.7.
591
592 BDB::VERSION ge v4.7 or die;
593
594=item BDB::VERSION min-version
595
596Returns true if the BDB version is at least the given version (specified
597as a v-string), false otherwise.

606and less then C<max-version>.

704is called to wait until the first callback has been called (it must set

603 ( 714 (
604 sub { $status = $! }, 715 sub { $status = $! },
605 sub { BDB::poll while !defined $status; $! = $status }, 716 sub { BDB::poll while !defined $status; $! = $status },
606 ) 717 )
607 } 718 }
719
720It simply blocks the process till the request has finished and then sets
721C<$!> to the return value. This means that if you don't use a callback,
722BDB will simply fall back to synchronous operations.
