1 Revision history for perl module BDB.
2
3 1.5 Sat May 10 22:22:42 CEST 2008
4 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
5 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
6 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
7 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
8 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
9 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
10 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).
11 - support AnyEvent::BDB.
12
13 1.45 Sun Mar 30 10:01:00 CEST 2008
14 - work around win32 perl's broken filehandles
15 (this cannot work in all cases, so watch out).
16
17 1.44 Sun Mar 30 08:28:11 CEST 2008
18 - encode filenames as utf-8 (for bdb/win32)
19 or binary (everywhere else).
20 - patch $! to support stringification of BDB errno values
21 (utter hack, this should be pluggable :).
22 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.
23
24 1.43 Sun Jan 13 11:52:49 CET 2008
25 - differentiate between nuked and undef objects, so as to
26 not throw an exception when destroying closed handles.
27
28 1.42 Tue Dec 25 15:22:50 CET 2007
29 - do not automatically call set_thread_count.
30
31 1.41 Sat Dec 22 08:32:41 CET 2007
32 - add cursor->set_priority.
33 - minor optimisations and checks.
34 - port to microsoft pseudo-C again.
35
36 1.4 Wed Dec 12 02:20:39 CET 2007
37 - new globals BDB::VERSION and ..VERSION_STRING.
38 - add db_upgrade.
39 - do not die in DESTROY after explicit db_close and similar
40 operations.
41
42 1.3 Fri Dec 7 14:36:25 CET 2007
43 - db_put and c_put leaked memory like hell (reported by Danny).
44 - de-IO::AIO-ify the documentation.
45 - port to microsofts pseudo-C from hell.
46 - added mutex_set_increment, mutex_set_tas_spins
47 and mutex_set_max, mutex_set_align.
48
49 1.2 Tue Dec 4 11:12:47 CET 2007
50 - after fork, invest some work to make sure that the poll_fileno
51 stays stable (by dup2'ing the new fd over the old one), to make
52 it easier for programs/libs that don't control their forking
53 behaviour and cannot recreate their watchers.
54 - added missing DB::RDONLY (reported by Danny).
55
56 1.1 Sun Sep 16 20:15:55 CEST 2007
57 - flag and check TXN_DEADLOCK flag for easier transaction
58 programming (see db_txn_finish).
59 - new custom db_txn_finish request.
60 - improved docs.
61
62 1.0 Mon Aug 13 14:02:42 CEST 2007
63 - some updates for db 4.6.
64 - vastly improved documentation, i.e. there is some now.
65 - this module has been tested a lot in the Crossfire TRT server.
66
67 0.5 Sun Jul 8 16:57:03 CEST 2007
68 - port to db 4.4.20 (probably any 4.4 version).
69 - added bdb error constants.
70 - add set_errfile/set_msgfile/set_verbose.
71 - shared code between IO::AIO and BDB.
72 - upgrade to xthread.h from IO::AIO for win32 compatibility.
73 - port to win32 (there is an unexplainable hang in
74 db_sequence_get...).
75
76 0.1 Mon Mar 5 20:44:18 CET 2007
77 - cloned from IO::AIO.
