5 1.84 Wed Aug 5 13:52:21 CEST 2009
6 - require common sense.
7 - use schmorp.h for pipe, taking advantage of eventfd.
8 - fix a bug in event pipe creation code on win32.
9
10 1.83 Sun Jan 11 01:52:56 CET 2009
11 - fix db_upgrade, add db_verify.
12
13 1.82 Sun Jan 4 11:22:44 CET 2009
14 - use our own socketpair emulation (stolen from libev), as perl's
15 doesn't work on vista, which returns fantasy port numbers
16 in getpeer/sockname.
17
18 1.81 Tue Oct 21 04:20:25 CEST 2008
19 - check that mutable arguments can be downgraded - this
20 /very indirectly) ensures that output variables won't
21 have spurious utf-8 flags.
22 - fix opmode checdk in db_c_get, db_c_pget again.
23 - allow undef/default arguments for db_compact, for a
24 crash-free tomorrow!
25 - fix a memleak in db_key_range.
26 - started a common pitfdalls section.
27 - added db_env_log_archive.
28 - added db->set_pagesize.
29 - added BDB::IGNORE_LEASE.
30 - reworked documentation structure.
31
32 1.801 Mon Sep 29 04:58:03 CEST 2008
33 - removed ptrace.h and user.h includes thta have been left in
34 erronously.
35 - "port" to buggy windows compilers. again.
36
37 1.8 Sat Sep 27 14:01:37 CEST 2008
38 - non-callback requests will now - by default - be executed in the
39 foreground, which is much faster, but doesn't allow parallel
40 processing of other, event-based, requests.
41 - functions that modify their arguments now croak when a constant
42 is passed to them.
43 - db_c_get/db_c_pget requests did not correctly test the operation flags.
44 - db_pget now correctly updates the pkey argument.
45 - keep references to the passed env/db/etc. objects so they
46 can't get destroyed while requests are still outstanding.
47 - fixed a few minor stack issues.
48
49 1.71 Tue Jul 29 05:30:24 CEST 2008
50 - add const char * to typemap for possible 5.6 support.
51 - untested support for db4.3.
52 - berkelydb needs seriously larger stacksizes (on x86 at least)
53 then what the default xthread.h provides.
54
55 1.7 Thu Jul 17 14:09:25 CEST 2008
56 - use a totally different mechanism to pass callbacks to
57 requests (see manpage).
58 - optional arguments before the callback can now be left out.
59 - use less memory per request, probably be a bit faster, too.
60 - fix a memory leak (callbacks were never freed).
61 - add a basic testsuite.
62 - add (untested) support for cdsgroup_begin and db_exists.
63 - make BDB::VERSION compatible to UNIVERSAL::VERSION.
64
65 1.6 Tue Jul 8 10:34:58 CEST 2008
66 - add new BDB::VERSION function for easy version checks.
67 - work around broken bsd headers once more.
68 - support for berkeley db 4.7 added.
69 - add support for log_set_config and it's constants,
70 and set_intermediate_dir_mode.
71 - add db_env_dbrename and db_env_dbremove.
72
73 1.5 Sat May 10 22:22:42 CEST 2008
74 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
75 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
76 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
77 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
78 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
79 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
80 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).
81 - support AnyEvent::BDB.
82
83 1.45 Sun Mar 30 10:01:00 CEST 2008
84 - work around win32 perl's broken filehandles
85 (this cannot work in all cases, so watch out).
86
87 1.44 Sun Mar 30 08:28:11 CEST 2008
88 - encode filenames as utf-8 (for bdb/win32)
89 or binary (everywhere else).
90 - patch $! to support stringification of BDB errno values
91 (utter hack, this should be pluggable :).
92 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.
93
94 1.43 Sun Jan 13 11:52:49 CET 2008
95 - differentiate between nuked and undef objects, so as to
96 not throw an exception when destroying closed handles.
97
98 1.42 Tue Dec 25 15:22:50 CET 2007
99 - do not automatically call set_thread_count.
100
101 1.41 Sat Dec 22 08:32:41 CET 2007
102 - add cursor->set_priority.
103 - minor optimisations and checks.
104 - port to microsoft pseudo-C again.
105
106 1.4 Wed Dec 12 02:20:39 CET 2007
107 - new globals BDB::VERSION and ..VERSION_STRING.
108 - add db_upgrade.
109 - do not die in DESTROY after explicit db_close and similar
110 operations.
111
112 1.3 Fri Dec 7 14:36:25 CET 2007
113 - db_put and c_put leaked memory like hell (reported by Danny).
114 - de-IO::AIO-ify the documentation.
115 - port to microsofts pseudo-C from hell.
116 - added mutex_set_increment, mutex_set_tas_spins
117 and mutex_set_max, mutex_set_align.
118
119 1.2 Tue Dec 4 11:12:47 CET 2007
120 - after fork, invest some work to make sure that the poll_fileno
121 stays stable (by dup2'ing the new fd over the old one), to make
122 it easier for programs/libs that don't control their forking
123 behaviour and cannot recreate their watchers.
124 - added missing DB::RDONLY (reported by Danny).
125
126 1.1 Sun Sep 16 20:15:55 CEST 2007
127 - flag and check TXN_DEADLOCK flag for easier transaction
128 programming (see db_txn_finish).
129 - new custom db_txn_finish request.
130 - improved docs.
131
132 1.0 Mon Aug 13 14:02:42 CEST 2007
133 - some updates for db 4.6.
134 - vastly improved documentation, i.e. there is some now.
135 - this module has been tested a lot in the Crossfire TRT server.
136
137 0.5 Sun Jul 8 16:57:03 CEST 2007
138 - port to db 4.4.20 (probably any 4.4 version).
139 - added bdb error constants.
140 - add set_errfile/set_msgfile/set_verbose.
141 - shared code between IO::AIO and BDB.
142 - upgrade to xthread.h from IO::AIO for win32 compatibility.
143 - port to win32 (there is an unexplainable hang in
144 db_sequence_get...).
145
146 0.1 Mon Mar 5 20:44:18 CET 2007
147 - cloned from IO::AIO.
