3 TODO: DB_RECNUM/DB_SET_RECNO?
4
5 - db 4.8 has removed XA resource manager functionality,
6 cope with it.
7 - add LOGVERSION, LOGVERSION_LATCHING, LOGOLDVER
8 symbols.
9
10 1.86 Fri Dec 4 16:03:21 CET 2009
11 - port to broken loser platform.
12
13 1.85 Thu Nov 12 03:22:21 CET 2009
14 - speed up object creation/type checking considerably
15 by caching the stashes.
16
17 1.84 Wed Aug 5 13:52:21 CEST 2009
18 - require common sense.
19 - use schmorp.h for pipe, taking advantage of eventfd.
20 - fix a bug in event pipe creation code on win32.
21
22 1.83 Sun Jan 11 01:52:56 CET 2009
23 - fix db_upgrade, add db_verify.
24
25 1.82 Sun Jan 4 11:22:44 CET 2009
26 - use our own socketpair emulation (stolen from libev), as perl's
27 doesn't work on vista, which returns fantasy port numbers
28 in getpeer/sockname.
29
30 1.81 Tue Oct 21 04:20:25 CEST 2008
31 - check that mutable arguments can be downgraded - this
32 /very indirectly) ensures that output variables won't
33 have spurious utf-8 flags.
34 - fix opmode checdk in db_c_get, db_c_pget again.
35 - allow undef/default arguments for db_compact, for a
36 crash-free tomorrow!
37 - fix a memleak in db_key_range.
38 - started a common pitfdalls section.
39 - added db_env_log_archive.
40 - added db->set_pagesize.
41 - added BDB::IGNORE_LEASE.
42 - reworked documentation structure.
43
44 1.801 Mon Sep 29 04:58:03 CEST 2008
45 - removed ptrace.h and user.h includes thta have been left in
46 erronously.
47 - "port" to buggy windows compilers. again.
48
49 1.8 Sat Sep 27 14:01:37 CEST 2008
50 - non-callback requests will now - by default - be executed in the
51 foreground, which is much faster, but doesn't allow parallel
52 processing of other, event-based, requests.
53 - functions that modify their arguments now croak when a constant
54 is passed to them.
55 - db_c_get/db_c_pget requests did not correctly test the operation flags.
56 - db_pget now correctly updates the pkey argument.
57 - keep references to the passed env/db/etc. objects so they
58 can't get destroyed while requests are still outstanding.
59 - fixed a few minor stack issues.
60
61 1.71 Tue Jul 29 05:30:24 CEST 2008
62 - add const char * to typemap for possible 5.6 support.
63 - untested support for db4.3.
64 - berkelydb needs seriously larger stacksizes (on x86 at least)
65 then what the default xthread.h provides.
66
67 1.7 Thu Jul 17 14:09:25 CEST 2008
68 - use a totally different mechanism to pass callbacks to
69 requests (see manpage).
70 - optional arguments before the callback can now be left out.
71 - use less memory per request, probably be a bit faster, too.
72 - fix a memory leak (callbacks were never freed).
73 - add a basic testsuite.
74 - add (untested) support for cdsgroup_begin and db_exists.
75 - make BDB::VERSION compatible to UNIVERSAL::VERSION.
76
77 1.6 Tue Jul 8 10:34:58 CEST 2008
78 - add new BDB::VERSION function for easy version checks.
79 - work around broken bsd headers once more.
80 - support for berkeley db 4.7 added.
81 - add support for log_set_config and it's constants,
82 and set_intermediate_dir_mode.
83 - add db_env_dbrename and db_env_dbremove.
84
85 1.5 Sat May 10 22:22:42 CEST 2008
86 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
87 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
88 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
89 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
90 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
91 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
92 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).
93 - support AnyEvent::BDB.
94
95 1.45 Sun Mar 30 10:01:00 CEST 2008
96 - work around win32 perl's broken filehandles
97 (this cannot work in all cases, so watch out).
98
99 1.44 Sun Mar 30 08:28:11 CEST 2008
100 - encode filenames as utf-8 (for bdb/win32)
101 or binary (everywhere else).
102 - patch $! to support stringification of BDB errno values
103 (utter hack, this should be pluggable :).
104 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.
105
106 1.43 Sun Jan 13 11:52:49 CET 2008
107 - differentiate between nuked and undef objects, so as to
108 not throw an exception when destroying closed handles.
109
110 1.42 Tue Dec 25 15:22:50 CET 2007
111 - do not automatically call set_thread_count.
112
113 1.41 Sat Dec 22 08:32:41 CET 2007
114 - add cursor->set_priority.
115 - minor optimisations and checks.
116 - port to microsoft pseudo-C again.
117
118 1.4 Wed Dec 12 02:20:39 CET 2007
119 - new globals BDB::VERSION and ..VERSION_STRING.
120 - add db_upgrade.
121 - do not die in DESTROY after explicit db_close and similar
122 operations.
123
124 1.3 Fri Dec 7 14:36:25 CET 2007
125 - db_put and c_put leaked memory like hell (reported by Danny).
126 - de-IO::AIO-ify the documentation.
127 - port to microsofts pseudo-C from hell.
128 - added mutex_set_increment, mutex_set_tas_spins
129 and mutex_set_max, mutex_set_align.
130
131 1.2 Tue Dec 4 11:12:47 CET 2007
132 - after fork, invest some work to make sure that the poll_fileno
133 stays stable (by dup2'ing the new fd over the old one), to make
134 it easier for programs/libs that don't control their forking
135 behaviour and cannot recreate their watchers.
136 - added missing DB::RDONLY (reported by Danny).
137
138 1.1 Sun Sep 16 20:15:55 CEST 2007
139 - flag and check TXN_DEADLOCK flag for easier transaction
140 programming (see db_txn_finish).
141 - new custom db_txn_finish request.
142 - improved docs.
143
144 1.0 Mon Aug 13 14:02:42 CEST 2007
145 - some updates for db 4.6.
146 - vastly improved documentation, i.e. there is some now.
147 - this module has been tested a lot in the Crossfire TRT server.
148
149 0.5 Sun Jul 8 16:57:03 CEST 2007
150 - port to db 4.4.20 (probably any 4.4 version).
151 - added bdb error constants.
152 - add set_errfile/set_msgfile/set_verbose.
153 - shared code between IO::AIO and BDB.
154 - upgrade to xthread.h from IO::AIO for win32 compatibility.
155 - port to win32 (there is an unexplainable hang in
156 db_sequence_get...).
157
158 0.1 Mon Mar 5 20:44:18 CET 2007
159 - cloned from IO::AIO.
