5 1.87 Tue Dec 22 03:06:09 CET 2009
6 - db 4.8 has removed XA resource manager functionality,
7 cope with it.
8 - add LOGVERSION, LOGVERSION_LATCHING, LOGOLDVER
9 symbols.
10
11 1.86 Fri Dec 4 16:03:21 CET 2009
12 - port to broken loser platform.
13
14 1.85 Thu Nov 12 03:22:21 CET 2009
15 - speed up object creation/type checking considerably
16 by caching the stashes.
17
18 1.84 Wed Aug 5 13:52:21 CEST 2009
19 - require common sense.
20 - use schmorp.h for pipe, taking advantage of eventfd.
21 - fix a bug in event pipe creation code on win32.
22
23 1.83 Sun Jan 11 01:52:56 CET 2009
24 - fix db_upgrade, add db_verify.
25
26 1.82 Sun Jan 4 11:22:44 CET 2009
27 - use our own socketpair emulation (stolen from libev), as perl's
28 doesn't work on vista, which returns fantasy port numbers
29 in getpeer/sockname.
30
31 1.81 Tue Oct 21 04:20:25 CEST 2008
32 - check that mutable arguments can be downgraded - this
33 /very indirectly) ensures that output variables won't
34 have spurious utf-8 flags.
35 - fix opmode checdk in db_c_get, db_c_pget again.
36 - allow undef/default arguments for db_compact, for a
37 crash-free tomorrow!
38 - fix a memleak in db_key_range.
39 - started a common pitfdalls section.
40 - added db_env_log_archive.
41 - added db->set_pagesize.
42 - added BDB::IGNORE_LEASE.
43 - reworked documentation structure.
44
45 1.801 Mon Sep 29 04:58:03 CEST 2008
46 - removed ptrace.h and user.h includes thta have been left in
47 erronously.
48 - "port" to buggy windows compilers. again.
49
50 1.8 Sat Sep 27 14:01:37 CEST 2008
51 - non-callback requests will now - by default - be executed in the
52 foreground, which is much faster, but doesn't allow parallel
53 processing of other, event-based, requests.
54 - functions that modify their arguments now croak when a constant
55 is passed to them.
56 - db_c_get/db_c_pget requests did not correctly test the operation flags.
57 - db_pget now correctly updates the pkey argument.
58 - keep references to the passed env/db/etc. objects so they
59 can't get destroyed while requests are still outstanding.
60 - fixed a few minor stack issues.
61
62 1.71 Tue Jul 29 05:30:24 CEST 2008
63 - add const char * to typemap for possible 5.6 support.
64 - untested support for db4.3.
65 - berkelydb needs seriously larger stacksizes (on x86 at least)
66 then what the default xthread.h provides.
67
68 1.7 Thu Jul 17 14:09:25 CEST 2008
69 - use a totally different mechanism to pass callbacks to
70 requests (see manpage).
71 - optional arguments before the callback can now be left out.
72 - use less memory per request, probably be a bit faster, too.
73 - fix a memory leak (callbacks were never freed).
74 - add a basic testsuite.
75 - add (untested) support for cdsgroup_begin and db_exists.
76 - make BDB::VERSION compatible to UNIVERSAL::VERSION.
77
78 1.6 Tue Jul 8 10:34:58 CEST 2008
79 - add new BDB::VERSION function for easy version checks.
80 - work around broken bsd headers once more.
81 - support for berkeley db 4.7 added.
82 - add support for log_set_config and it's constants,
83 and set_intermediate_dir_mode.
84 - add db_env_dbrename and db_env_dbremove.
85
86 1.5 Sat May 10 22:22:42 CEST 2008
87 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
88 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
89 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
90 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
91 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
92 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
93 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).
94 - support AnyEvent::BDB.
95
96 1.45 Sun Mar 30 10:01:00 CEST 2008
97 - work around win32 perl's broken filehandles
98 (this cannot work in all cases, so watch out).
99
100 1.44 Sun Mar 30 08:28:11 CEST 2008
101 - encode filenames as utf-8 (for bdb/win32)
102 or binary (everywhere else).
103 - patch $! to support stringification of BDB errno values
104 (utter hack, this should be pluggable :).
105 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.
106
107 1.43 Sun Jan 13 11:52:49 CET 2008
108 - differentiate between nuked and undef objects, so as to
109 not throw an exception when destroying closed handles.
110
111 1.42 Tue Dec 25 15:22:50 CET 2007
112 - do not automatically call set_thread_count.
113
114 1.41 Sat Dec 22 08:32:41 CET 2007
115 - add cursor->set_priority.
116 - minor optimisations and checks.
117 - port to microsoft pseudo-C again.
118
119 1.4 Wed Dec 12 02:20:39 CET 2007
120 - new globals BDB::VERSION and ..VERSION_STRING.
121 - add db_upgrade.
122 - do not die in DESTROY after explicit db_close and similar
123 operations.
124
125 1.3 Fri Dec 7 14:36:25 CET 2007
126 - db_put and c_put leaked memory like hell (reported by Danny).
127 - de-IO::AIO-ify the documentation.
128 - port to microsofts pseudo-C from hell.
129 - added mutex_set_increment, mutex_set_tas_spins
130 and mutex_set_max, mutex_set_align.
131
132 1.2 Tue Dec 4 11:12:47 CET 2007
133 - after fork, invest some work to make sure that the poll_fileno
134 stays stable (by dup2'ing the new fd over the old one), to make
135 it easier for programs/libs that don't control their forking
136 behaviour and cannot recreate their watchers.
137 - added missing DB::RDONLY (reported by Danny).
138
139 1.1 Sun Sep 16 20:15:55 CEST 2007
140 - flag and check TXN_DEADLOCK flag for easier transaction
141 programming (see db_txn_finish).
142 - new custom db_txn_finish request.
143 - improved docs.
144
145 1.0 Mon Aug 13 14:02:42 CEST 2007
146 - some updates for db 4.6.
147 - vastly improved documentation, i.e. there is some now.
148 - this module has been tested a lot in the Crossfire TRT server.
149
150 0.5 Sun Jul 8 16:57:03 CEST 2007
151 - port to db 4.4.20 (probably any 4.4 version).
152 - added bdb error constants.
153 - add set_errfile/set_msgfile/set_verbose.
154 - shared code between IO::AIO and BDB.
155 - upgrade to xthread.h from IO::AIO for win32 compatibility.
156 - port to win32 (there is an unexplainable hang in
157 db_sequence_get...).
158
159 0.1 Mon Mar 5 20:44:18 CET 2007
160 - cloned from IO::AIO.
