5 1.82 Sun Jan 4 11:22:44 CET 2009
6 - use our own socketpair emulation (stolen from libev), as perl's
7 doesn't work on vista, which returns fantasy port numbers
8 in getpeer/sockname.
9
10 1.81 Tue Oct 21 04:20:25 CEST 2008
11 - check that mutable arguments can be downgraded - this
12 /very indirectly) ensures that output variables won't
13 have spurious utf-8 flags.
14 - fix opmode checdk in db_c_get, db_c_pget again.
15 - allow undef/default arguments for db_compact, for a
16 crash-free tomorrow!
17 - fix a memleak in db_key_range.
18 - started a common pitfdalls section.
19 - added db_env_log_archive.
20 - added db->set_pagesize.
21 - added BDB::IGNORE_LEASE.
22 - reworked documentation structure.
23
24 1.801 Mon Sep 29 04:58:03 CEST 2008
25 - removed ptrace.h and user.h includes thta have been left in
26 erronously.
27 - "port" to buggy windows compilers. again.
28
29 1.8 Sat Sep 27 14:01:37 CEST 2008
30 - non-callback requests will now - by default - be executed in the
31 foreground, which is much faster, but doesn't allow parallel
32 processing of other, event-based, requests.
33 - functions that modify their arguments now croak when a constant
34 is passed to them.
35 - db_c_get/db_c_pget requests did not correctly test the operation flags.
36 - db_pget now correctly updates the pkey argument.
37 - keep references to the passed env/db/etc. objects so they
38 can't get destroyed while requests are still outstanding.
39 - fixed a few minor stack issues.
40
41 1.71 Tue Jul 29 05:30:24 CEST 2008
42 - add const char * to typemap for possible 5.6 support.
43 - untested support for db4.3.
44 - berkelydb needs seriously larger stacksizes (on x86 at least)
45 then what the default xthread.h provides.
46
47 1.7 Thu Jul 17 14:09:25 CEST 2008
48 - use a totally different mechanism to pass callbacks to
49 requests (see manpage).
50 - optional arguments before the callback can now be left out.
51 - use less memory per request, probably be a bit faster, too.
52 - fix a memory leak (callbacks were never freed).
53 - add a basic testsuite.
54 - add (untested) support for cdsgroup_begin and db_exists.
55 - make BDB::VERSION compatible to UNIVERSAL::VERSION.
56
57 1.6 Tue Jul 8 10:34:58 CEST 2008
58 - add new BDB::VERSION function for easy version checks.
59 - work around broken bsd headers once more.
60 - support for berkeley db 4.7 added.
61 - add support for log_set_config and it's constants,
62 and set_intermediate_dir_mode.
63 - add db_env_dbrename and db_env_dbremove.
64
65 1.5 Sat May 10 22:22:42 CEST 2008
66 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
67 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
68 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
69 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
70 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
71 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
72 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).
73 - support AnyEvent::BDB.
74
75 1.45 Sun Mar 30 10:01:00 CEST 2008
76 - work around win32 perl's broken filehandles
77 (this cannot work in all cases, so watch out).
78
79 1.44 Sun Mar 30 08:28:11 CEST 2008
80 - encode filenames as utf-8 (for bdb/win32)
81 or binary (everywhere else).
82 - patch $! to support stringification of BDB errno values
83 (utter hack, this should be pluggable :).
84 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.
85
86 1.43 Sun Jan 13 11:52:49 CET 2008
87 - differentiate between nuked and undef objects, so as to
88 not throw an exception when destroying closed handles.
89
90 1.42 Tue Dec 25 15:22:50 CET 2007
91 - do not automatically call set_thread_count.
92
93 1.41 Sat Dec 22 08:32:41 CET 2007
94 - add cursor->set_priority.
95 - minor optimisations and checks.
96 - port to microsoft pseudo-C again.
97
98 1.4 Wed Dec 12 02:20:39 CET 2007
99 - new globals BDB::VERSION and ..VERSION_STRING.
100 - add db_upgrade.
101 - do not die in DESTROY after explicit db_close and similar
102 operations.
103
104 1.3 Fri Dec 7 14:36:25 CET 2007
105 - db_put and c_put leaked memory like hell (reported by Danny).
106 - de-IO::AIO-ify the documentation.
107 - port to microsofts pseudo-C from hell.
108 - added mutex_set_increment, mutex_set_tas_spins
109 and mutex_set_max, mutex_set_align.
110
111 1.2 Tue Dec 4 11:12:47 CET 2007
112 - after fork, invest some work to make sure that the poll_fileno
113 stays stable (by dup2'ing the new fd over the old one), to make
114 it easier for programs/libs that don't control their forking
115 behaviour and cannot recreate their watchers.
116 - added missing DB::RDONLY (reported by Danny).
117
118 1.1 Sun Sep 16 20:15:55 CEST 2007
119 - flag and check TXN_DEADLOCK flag for easier transaction
120 programming (see db_txn_finish).
121 - new custom db_txn_finish request.
122 - improved docs.
123
124 1.0 Mon Aug 13 14:02:42 CEST 2007
125 - some updates for db 4.6.
126 - vastly improved documentation, i.e. there is some now.
127 - this module has been tested a lot in the Crossfire TRT server.
128
129 0.5 Sun Jul 8 16:57:03 CEST 2007
130 - port to db 4.4.20 (probably any 4.4 version).
131 - added bdb error constants.
132 - add set_errfile/set_msgfile/set_verbose.
133 - shared code between IO::AIO and BDB.
134 - upgrade to xthread.h from IO::AIO for win32 compatibility.
135 - port to win32 (there is an unexplainable hang in
136 db_sequence_get...).
137
138 0.1 Mon Mar 5 20:44:18 CET 2007
139 - cloned from IO::AIO.
