2
3 TODO: DB_RECNUM/DB_SET_RECNO?
4
5 1.83
6 - fix db_upgrade, add db_verify.
7
8 1.82 Sun Jan 4 11:22:44 CET 2009
9 - use our own socketpair emulation (stolen from libev), as perl's
10 doesn't work on vista, which returns fantasy port numbers
11 in getpeer/sockname.
12
13 1.81 Tue Oct 21 04:20:25 CEST 2008
14 - check that mutable arguments can be downgraded - this
15 /very indirectly) ensures that output variables won't
16 have spurious utf-8 flags.
17 - fix opmode checdk in db_c_get, db_c_pget again.
18 - allow undef/default arguments for db_compact, for a
19 crash-free tomorrow!
20 - fix a memleak in db_key_range.
21 - started a common pitfdalls section.
22 - added db_env_log_archive.
23 - added db->set_pagesize.
24 - added BDB::IGNORE_LEASE.
25 - reworked documentation structure.
26
27 1.801 Mon Sep 29 04:58:03 CEST 2008
28 - removed ptrace.h and user.h includes thta have been left in
29 erronously.
30 - "port" to buggy windows compilers. again.
31
32 1.8 Sat Sep 27 14:01:37 CEST 2008
33 - non-callback requests will now - by default - be executed in the
34 foreground, which is much faster, but doesn't allow parallel
35 processing of other, event-based, requests.
36 - functions that modify their arguments now croak when a constant
37 is passed to them.
38 - db_c_get/db_c_pget requests did not correctly test the operation flags.
39 - db_pget now correctly updates the pkey argument.
40 - keep references to the passed env/db/etc. objects so they
41 can't get destroyed while requests are still outstanding.
42 - fixed a few minor stack issues.
43
44 1.71 Tue Jul 29 05:30:24 CEST 2008
45 - add const char * to typemap for possible 5.6 support.
46 - untested support for db4.3.
47 - berkelydb needs seriously larger stacksizes (on x86 at least)
48 then what the default xthread.h provides.
49
50 1.7 Thu Jul 17 14:09:25 CEST 2008
51 - use a totally different mechanism to pass callbacks to
52 requests (see manpage).
53 - optional arguments before the callback can now be left out.
54 - use less memory per request, probably be a bit faster, too.
55 - fix a memory leak (callbacks were never freed).
56 - add a basic testsuite.
57 - add (untested) support for cdsgroup_begin and db_exists.
58 - make BDB::VERSION compatible to UNIVERSAL::VERSION.
59
60 1.6 Tue Jul 8 10:34:58 CEST 2008
61 - add new BDB::VERSION function for easy version checks.
62 - work around broken bsd headers once more.
63 - support for berkeley db 4.7 added.
64 - add support for log_set_config and it's constants,
65 and set_intermediate_dir_mode.
66 - add db_env_dbrename and db_env_dbremove.
67
68 1.5 Sat May 10 22:22:42 CEST 2008
69 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
70 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
71 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
72 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
73 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
74 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
75 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).
76 - support AnyEvent::BDB.
77
78 1.45 Sun Mar 30 10:01:00 CEST 2008
79 - work around win32 perl's broken filehandles
80 (this cannot work in all cases, so watch out).
81
82 1.44 Sun Mar 30 08:28:11 CEST 2008
83 - encode filenames as utf-8 (for bdb/win32)
84 or binary (everywhere else).
85 - patch $! to support stringification of BDB errno values
86 (utter hack, this should be pluggable :).
87 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.
88
89 1.43 Sun Jan 13 11:52:49 CET 2008
90 - differentiate between nuked and undef objects, so as to
91 not throw an exception when destroying closed handles.
92
93 1.42 Tue Dec 25 15:22:50 CET 2007
94 - do not automatically call set_thread_count.
95
96 1.41 Sat Dec 22 08:32:41 CET 2007
97 - add cursor->set_priority.
98 - minor optimisations and checks.
99 - port to microsoft pseudo-C again.
100
101 1.4 Wed Dec 12 02:20:39 CET 2007
102 - new globals BDB::VERSION and ..VERSION_STRING.
103 - add db_upgrade.
104 - do not die in DESTROY after explicit db_close and similar
105 operations.
106
107 1.3 Fri Dec 7 14:36:25 CET 2007
108 - db_put and c_put leaked memory like hell (reported by Danny).
109 - de-IO::AIO-ify the documentation.
110 - port to microsofts pseudo-C from hell.
111 - added mutex_set_increment, mutex_set_tas_spins
112 and mutex_set_max, mutex_set_align.
113
114 1.2 Tue Dec 4 11:12:47 CET 2007
115 - after fork, invest some work to make sure that the poll_fileno
116 stays stable (by dup2'ing the new fd over the old one), to make
117 it easier for programs/libs that don't control their forking
118 behaviour and cannot recreate their watchers.
119 - added missing DB::RDONLY (reported by Danny).
120
121 1.1 Sun Sep 16 20:15:55 CEST 2007
122 - flag and check TXN_DEADLOCK flag for easier transaction
123 programming (see db_txn_finish).
124 - new custom db_txn_finish request.
125 - improved docs.
126
127 1.0 Mon Aug 13 14:02:42 CEST 2007
128 - some updates for db 4.6.
129 - vastly improved documentation, i.e. there is some now.
130 - this module has been tested a lot in the Crossfire TRT server.
131
132 0.5 Sun Jul 8 16:57:03 CEST 2007
133 - port to db 4.4.20 (probably any 4.4 version).
134 - added bdb error constants.
135 - add set_errfile/set_msgfile/set_verbose.
136 - shared code between IO::AIO and BDB.
137 - upgrade to xthread.h from IO::AIO for win32 compatibility.
138 - port to win32 (there is an unexplainable hang in
139 db_sequence_get...).
140
141 0.1 Mon Mar 5 20:44:18 CET 2007
142 - cloned from IO::AIO.
