51.86 Fri Dec 4 16:03:21 CET 2009
6 - port to broken loser platform.
7
81.85 Thu Nov 12 03:22:21 CET 2009
9 - speed up object creation/type checking considerably
10 by caching the stashes.
11
121.84 Wed Aug 5 13:52:21 CEST 2009
13 - require common sense.
14 - use schmorp.h for pipe, taking advantage of eventfd.
15 - fix a bug in event pipe creation code on win32.
16
171.83 Sun Jan 11 01:52:56 CET 2009
18 - fix db_upgrade, add db_verify.
19
201.82 Sun Jan 4 11:22:44 CET 2009
21 - use our own socketpair emulation (stolen from libev), as perl's
22 doesn't work on vista, which returns fantasy port numbers
23 in getpeer/sockname.
24
251.81 Tue Oct 21 04:20:25 CEST 2008
26 - check that mutable arguments can be downgraded - this
27 /very indirectly) ensures that output variables won't
28 have spurious utf-8 flags.
29 - fix opmode checdk in db_c_get, db_c_pget again.
30 - allow undef/default arguments for db_compact, for a
31 crash-free tomorrow!
32 - fix a memleak in db_key_range.
33 - started a common pitfdalls section.
34 - added db_env_log_archive.
35 - added db->set_pagesize.
36 - added BDB::IGNORE_LEASE.
37 - reworked documentation structure.
38
391.801 Mon Sep 29 04:58:03 CEST 2008
40 - removed ptrace.h and user.h includes thta have been left in
41 erronously.
42 - "port" to buggy windows compilers. again.
43
441.8 Sat Sep 27 14:01:37 CEST 2008
45 - non-callback requests will now - by default - be executed in the
46 foreground, which is much faster, but doesn't allow parallel
47 processing of other, event-based, requests.
48 - functions that modify their arguments now croak when a constant
49 is passed to them.
50 - db_c_get/db_c_pget requests did not correctly test the operation flags.
51 - db_pget now correctly updates the pkey argument.
52 - keep references to the passed env/db/etc. objects so they
53 can't get destroyed while requests are still outstanding.
54 - fixed a few minor stack issues.
55
561.71 Tue Jul 29 05:30:24 CEST 2008
57 - add const char * to typemap for possible 5.6 support.
58 - untested support for db4.3.
59 - berkelydb needs seriously larger stacksizes (on x86 at least)
60 then what the default xthread.h provides.
61
621.7 Thu Jul 17 14:09:25 CEST 2008
63 - use a totally different mechanism to pass callbacks to
64 requests (see manpage).
65 - optional arguments before the callback can now be left out.
66 - use less memory per request, probably be a bit faster, too.
67 - fix a memory leak (callbacks were never freed).
68 - add a basic testsuite.
69 - add (untested) support for cdsgroup_begin and db_exists.
70 - make BDB::VERSION compatible to UNIVERSAL::VERSION.
71
721.6 Tue Jul 8 10:34:58 CEST 2008
73 - add new BDB::VERSION function for easy version checks.
74 - work around broken bsd headers once more.
75 - support for berkeley db 4.7 added.
76 - add support for log_set_config and it's constants,
77 and set_intermediate_dir_mode.
78 - add db_env_dbrename and db_env_dbremove.
79
801.5 Sat May 10 22:22:42 CEST 2008
81 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
82 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
83 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
84 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
85 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
86 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
87 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).
88 - support AnyEvent::BDB.
89
901.45 Sun Mar 30 10:01:00 CEST 2008
91 - work around win32 perl's broken filehandles
92 (this cannot work in all cases, so watch out).
93
941.44 Sun Mar 30 08:28:11 CEST 2008
95 - encode filenames as utf-8 (for bdb/win32)
96 or binary (everywhere else).
97 - patch $! to support stringification of BDB errno values
98 (utter hack, this should be pluggable :).
99 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.
100
1011.43 Sun Jan 13 11:52:49 CET 2008
102 - differentiate between nuked and undef objects, so as to
103 not throw an exception when destroying closed handles.
104
1051.42 Tue Dec 25 15:22:50 CET 2007
106 - do not automatically call set_thread_count.
107
1081.41 Sat Dec 22 08:32:41 CET 2007
109 - add cursor->set_priority.
110 - minor optimisations and checks.
111 - port to microsoft pseudo-C again.
112
1131.4 Wed Dec 12 02:20:39 CET 2007
114 - new globals BDB::VERSION and ..VERSION_STRING.
115 - add db_upgrade.
116 - do not die in DESTROY after explicit db_close and similar
117 operations.
118
1191.3 Fri Dec 7 14:36:25 CET 2007
120 - db_put and c_put leaked memory like hell (reported by Danny).
121 - de-IO::AIO-ify the documentation.
122 - port to microsofts pseudo-C from hell.
123 - added mutex_set_increment, mutex_set_tas_spins
124 and mutex_set_max, mutex_set_align.
125
1261.2 Tue Dec 4 11:12:47 CET 2007
127 - after fork, invest some work to make sure that the poll_fileno
128 stays stable (by dup2'ing the new fd over the old one), to make
129 it easier for programs/libs that don't control their forking
130 behaviour and cannot recreate their watchers.
131 - added missing DB::RDONLY (reported by Danny).
132
1331.1 Sun Sep 16 20:15:55 CEST 2007
134 - flag and check TXN_DEADLOCK flag for easier transaction
135 programming (see db_txn_finish).
136 - new custom db_txn_finish request.
3 - improved docs. 137 - improved docs.

51.0 Mon Aug 13 14:02:42 CEST 2007 1391.0 Mon Aug 13 14:02:42 CEST 2007
6 - some updates for db 4.6. 140 - some updates for db 4.6.
7 - vastly improved documentation, i.e. there is some now. 141 - vastly improved documentation, i.e. there is some now.
