1 Revision history for perl module BDB.
2
3 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
4 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
5 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
6 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
7 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
8 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
9 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).
10
11 1.45 Sun Mar 30 10:01:00 CEST 2008
12 - work around win32 perl's broken filehandles
13 (this cannot work in all cases, so watch out).
14
15 1.44 Sun Mar 30 08:28:11 CEST 2008
16 - encode filenames as utf-8 (for bdb/win32)
17 or binary (everywhere else).
18 - patch $! to support stringification of BDB errno values
19 (utter hack, this should be pluggable :).
20 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.
21
22 1.43 Sun Jan 13 11:52:49 CET 2008
23 - differentiate between nuked and undef objects, so as to
24 not throw an exception when destroying closed handles.
25
26 1.42 Tue Dec 25 15:22:50 CET 2007
27 - do not automatically call set_thread_count.
28
29 1.41 Sat Dec 22 08:32:41 CET 2007
30 - add cursor->set_priority.
31 - minor optimisations and checks.
32 - port to microsoft pseudo-C again.
33
34 1.4 Wed Dec 12 02:20:39 CET 2007
35 - new globals BDB::VERSION and ..VERSION_STRING.
36 - add db_upgrade.
37 - do not die in DESTROY after explicit db_close and similar
38 operations.
39
40 1.3 Fri Dec 7 14:36:25 CET 2007
41 - db_put and c_put leaked memory like hell (reported by Danny).
42 - de-IO::AIO-ify the documentation.
43 - port to microsofts pseudo-C from hell.
44 - added mutex_set_increment, mutex_set_tas_spins
45 and mutex_set_max, mutex_set_align.
46
47 1.2 Tue Dec 4 11:12:47 CET 2007
48 - after fork, invest some work to make sure that the poll_fileno
49 stays stable (by dup2'ing the new fd over the old one), to make
50 it easier for programs/libs that don't control their forking
51 behaviour and cannot recreate their watchers.
52 - added missing DB::RDONLY (reported by Danny).
53
54 1.1 Sun Sep 16 20:15:55 CEST 2007
55 - flag and check TXN_DEADLOCK flag for easier transaction
56 programming (see db_txn_finish).
57 - new custom db_txn_finish request.
58 - improved docs.
59
60 1.0 Mon Aug 13 14:02:42 CEST 2007
61 - some updates for db 4.6.
62 - vastly improved documentation, i.e. there is some now.
63 - this module has been tested a lot in the Crossfire TRT server.
64
65 0.5 Sun Jul 8 16:57:03 CEST 2007
66 - port to db 4.4.20 (probably any 4.4 version).
67 - added bdb error constants.
68 - add set_errfile/set_msgfile/set_verbose.
69 - shared code between IO::AIO and BDB.
70 - upgrade to xthread.h from IO::AIO for win32 compatibility.
71 - port to win32 (there is an unexplainable hang in
72 db_sequence_get...).
73
74 0.1 Mon Mar 5 20:44:18 CET 2007
75 - cloned from IO::AIO.
