3TODO: DB_RECNUM/DB_SET_RECNO?
4
5- maybe add faq: why doe sit crash (parallelity)
6- why does it freeze (locking).
7- DB_IGNORE_LEASE MULTIPLE_KEY 4.7?
81.81
9 - check that mutable arguments can be downgraded - this
10 /very indirectly) ensures that output variables won't
11 have spurious utf-8 flags.
12 - fix opmode checdk in db_c_get, db_c_pget again.
13 - added db->set_pagesize.
14 - added BDB::IGNORE_LEASE.
15
161.801 Mon Sep 29 04:58:03 CEST 2008
17 - removed ptrace.h and user.h includes thta have been left in
18 erronously.
19 - "port" to buggy windows compilers. again.

211.8 Sat Sep 27 14:01:37 CEST 2008
22 - non-callback requests will now - by default - be executed in the
23 foreground, which is much faster, but doesn't allow parallel
24 processing of other, event-based, requests.
25 - functions that modify their arguments now croak when a constant
26 is passed to them.
27 - db_c_get/db_c_pget requests did not correctly test the operation flags.
28 - db_pget now correctly updates the pkey argument.
29 - keep references to the passed env/db/etc. objects so they
30 can't get destroyed while requests are still outstanding.
31 - fixed a few minor stack issues.
32
331.71 Tue Jul 29 05:30:24 CEST 2008
34 - add const char * to typemap for possible 5.6 support.
35 - untested support for db4.3.
36 - berkelydb needs seriously larger stacksizes (on x86 at least)
37 then what the default xthread.h provides.
38
391.7 Thu Jul 17 14:09:25 CEST 2008
40 - use a totally different mechanism to pass callbacks to
41 requests (see manpage).
42 - optional arguments before the callback can now be left out.
43 - use less memory per request, probably be a bit faster, too.
44 - fix a memory leak (callbacks were never freed).
45 - add a basic testsuite.
46 - add (untested) support for cdsgroup_begin and db_exists.
47 - make BDB::VERSION compatible to UNIVERSAL::VERSION.
48
491.6 Tue Jul 8 10:34:58 CEST 2008
50 - add new BDB::VERSION function for easy version checks.
51 - work around broken bsd headers once more.
52 - support for berkeley db 4.7 added.
53 - add support for log_set_config and it's constants,
54 and set_intermediate_dir_mode.
55 - add db_env_dbrename and db_env_dbremove.
56
571.5 Sat May 10 22:22:42 CEST 2008
58 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
59 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
60 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
61 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
62 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
63 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
64 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).
65 - support AnyEvent::BDB.
66
671.45 Sun Mar 30 10:01:00 CEST 2008
68 - work around win32 perl's broken filehandles
69 (this cannot work in all cases, so watch out).
70
711.44 Sun Mar 30 08:28:11 CEST 2008
72 - encode filenames as utf-8 (for bdb/win32)
73 or binary (everywhere else).
74 - patch $! to support stringification of BDB errno values
75 (utter hack, this should be pluggable :).
76 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.
77
781.43 Sun Jan 13 11:52:49 CET 2008
79 - differentiate between nuked and undef objects, so as to
80 not throw an exception when destroying closed handles.
81
821.42 Tue Dec 25 15:22:50 CET 2007
83 - do not automatically call set_thread_count.

31.41 Sat Dec 22 08:32:41 CET 2007 851.41 Sat Dec 22 08:32:41 CET 2007
4 - add cursor->set_priority. 86 - add cursor->set_priority.
5 - minor optimisations and checks. 87 - minor optimisations and checks.
6 - port to microsoft pseudo-C again. 88 - port to microsoft pseudo-C again.
