8 - non-callback requests will now - by default -be executed in the
9 foreground, which is much faster, but doesn't allow parallel
10 processing of other, event-based, requests.
11 - keep references to the passed env/db/etc. objects so they
12 can't get destroyed while requests are still outstanding.
13 - fixed a few minor stack issues.
14
151.71 Tue Jul 29 05:30:24 CEST 2008
16 - add const char * to typemap for possible 5.6 support.
17 - untested support for db4.3.
18 - berkelydb needs seriously larger stacksizes (on x86 at least)
19 then what the default xthread.h provides.
20
211.7 Thu Jul 17 14:09:25 CEST 2008
22 - use a totally different mechanism to pass callbacks to
23 requests (see manpage).
24 - optional arguments before the callback can now be left out.
25 - use less memory per request, probably be a bit faster, too.
26 - fix a memory leak (callbacks were never freed).
27 - add a basic testsuite.
28 - add (untested) support for cdsgroup_begin and db_exists.
29 - make BDB::VERSION compatible to UNIVERSAL::VERSION.
30
311.6 Tue Jul 8 10:34:58 CEST 2008
32 - add new BDB::VERSION function for easy version checks.
33 - work around broken bsd headers once more.
34 - support for berkeley db 4.7 added.
35 - add support for log_set_config and it's constants,
36 and set_intermediate_dir_mode.
37 - add db_env_dbrename and db_env_dbremove.
38
391.5 Sat May 10 22:22:42 CEST 2008
40 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
41 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
42 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
43 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
44 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
45 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
46 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).
47 - support AnyEvent::BDB.
48
491.45 Sun Mar 30 10:01:00 CEST 2008
50 - work around win32 perl's broken filehandles
51 (this cannot work in all cases, so watch out).
52
531.44 Sun Mar 30 08:28:11 CEST 2008
54 - encode filenames as utf-8 (for bdb/win32)
55 or binary (everywhere else).
56 - patch $! to support stringification of BDB errno values
57 (utter hack, this should be pluggable :).
58 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.
59
601.43 Sun Jan 13 11:52:49 CET 2008
61 - differentiate between nuked and undef objects, so as to
62 not throw an exception when destroying closed handles.
63
641.42 Tue Dec 25 15:22:50 CET 2007
65 - do not automatically call set_thread_count.
66
671.41 Sat Dec 22 08:32:41 CET 2007
68 - add cursor->set_priority.
69 - minor optimisations and checks.
70 - port to microsoft pseudo-C again.
71
721.4 Wed Dec 12 02:20:39 CET 2007
73 - new globals BDB::VERSION and ..VERSION_STRING.
74 - add db_upgrade.
75 - do not die in DESTROY after explicit db_close and similar
76 operations.
77
781.3 Fri Dec 7 14:36:25 CET 2007
79 - db_put and c_put leaked memory like hell (reported by Danny).
3 - de-IO::AIO-ify the documentation. 80 - de-IO::AIO-ify the documentation.
81 - port to microsofts pseudo-C from hell.
82 - added mutex_set_increment, mutex_set_tas_spins
83 and mutex_set_max, mutex_set_align.

6 - after fork, invest some work to make sure that the poll_fileno 86 - after fork, invest some work to make sure that the poll_fileno
7 stays stable (by dup2'ing the new fd over the old one), to make 87 stays stable (by dup2'ing the new fd over the old one), to make
8 it easier for programs/libs that don't control their forking 88 it easier for programs/libs that don't control their forking
