5 1.89 Fri Jul 29 11:29:21 CEST 2011
6 - make it compile and test successfully with libdb 5.1, but
7 do not add any new symbols or functionality.
8
9 1.88 Wed Mar 31 02:43:42 CEST 2010
10 - a double fork partially killed the event pipe (great testcase
11 by dormando). affects IO::AIO, BDB and Async::Interrupt.
12 - suck steve's dick and rename our symbols to avoid colliding
13 with nonstandard identifier spam on the broken os x pseudo-os.
14 affects IO::AIO and BDB.
15
16 1.87 Tue Dec 22 03:06:09 CET 2009
17 - db 4.8 has removed XA resource manager functionality,
18 cope with it.
19 - add LOGVERSION, LOGVERSION_LATCHING, LOGOLDVER
20 symbols.
21
22 1.86 Fri Dec 4 16:03:21 CET 2009
23 - port to broken loser platform.
24
25 1.85 Thu Nov 12 03:22:21 CET 2009
26 - speed up object creation/type checking considerably
27 by caching the stashes.
28
29 1.84 Wed Aug 5 13:52:21 CEST 2009
30 - require common sense.
31 - use schmorp.h for pipe, taking advantage of eventfd.
32 - fix a bug in event pipe creation code on win32.
33
34 1.83 Sun Jan 11 01:52:56 CET 2009
35 - fix db_upgrade, add db_verify.
36
37 1.82 Sun Jan 4 11:22:44 CET 2009
38 - use our own socketpair emulation (stolen from libev), as perl's
39 doesn't work on vista, which returns fantasy port numbers
40 in getpeer/sockname.
41
42 1.81 Tue Oct 21 04:20:25 CEST 2008
43 - check that mutable arguments can be downgraded - this
44 /very indirectly) ensures that output variables won't
45 have spurious utf-8 flags.
46 - fix opmode checdk in db_c_get, db_c_pget again.
47 - allow undef/default arguments for db_compact, for a
48 crash-free tomorrow!
49 - fix a memleak in db_key_range.
50 - started a common pitfdalls section.
51 - added db_env_log_archive.
52 - added db->set_pagesize.
53 - added BDB::IGNORE_LEASE.
54 - reworked documentation structure.
55
56 1.801 Mon Sep 29 04:58:03 CEST 2008
57 - removed ptrace.h and user.h includes thta have been left in
58 erronously.
59 - "port" to buggy windows compilers. again.
60
61 1.8 Sat Sep 27 14:01:37 CEST 2008
62 - non-callback requests will now - by default - be executed in the
63 foreground, which is much faster, but doesn't allow parallel
64 processing of other, event-based, requests.
65 - functions that modify their arguments now croak when a constant
66 is passed to them.
67 - db_c_get/db_c_pget requests did not correctly test the operation flags.
68 - db_pget now correctly updates the pkey argument.
69 - keep references to the passed env/db/etc. objects so they
70 can't get destroyed while requests are still outstanding.
71 - fixed a few minor stack issues.
72
73 1.71 Tue Jul 29 05:30:24 CEST 2008
74 - add const char * to typemap for possible 5.6 support.
75 - untested support for db4.3.
76 - berkelydb needs seriously larger stacksizes (on x86 at least)
77 then what the default xthread.h provides.
78
79 1.7 Thu Jul 17 14:09:25 CEST 2008
80 - use a totally different mechanism to pass callbacks to
81 requests (see manpage).
82 - optional arguments before the callback can now be left out.
83 - use less memory per request, probably be a bit faster, too.
84 - fix a memory leak (callbacks were never freed).
85 - add a basic testsuite.
86 - add (untested) support for cdsgroup_begin and db_exists.
87 - make BDB::VERSION compatible to UNIVERSAL::VERSION.
88
89 1.6 Tue Jul 8 10:34:58 CEST 2008
90 - add new BDB::VERSION function for easy version checks.
91 - work around broken bsd headers once more.
92 - support for berkeley db 4.7 added.
93 - add support for log_set_config and it's constants,
94 and set_intermediate_dir_mode.
95 - add db_env_dbrename and db_env_dbremove.
96
97 1.5 Sat May 10 22:22:42 CEST 2008
98 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
99 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
100 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
101 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
102 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
103 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
104 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).
105 - support AnyEvent::BDB.
106
107 1.45 Sun Mar 30 10:01:00 CEST 2008
108 - work around win32 perl's broken filehandles
109 (this cannot work in all cases, so watch out).
110
111 1.44 Sun Mar 30 08:28:11 CEST 2008
112 - encode filenames as utf-8 (for bdb/win32)
113 or binary (everywhere else).
114 - patch $! to support stringification of BDB errno values
115 (utter hack, this should be pluggable :).
116 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.
117
118 1.43 Sun Jan 13 11:52:49 CET 2008
119 - differentiate between nuked and undef objects, so as to
120 not throw an exception when destroying closed handles.
121
122 1.42 Tue Dec 25 15:22:50 CET 2007
123 - do not automatically call set_thread_count.
124
125 1.41 Sat Dec 22 08:32:41 CET 2007
126 - add cursor->set_priority.
127 - minor optimisations and checks.
128 - port to microsoft pseudo-C again.
129
130 1.4 Wed Dec 12 02:20:39 CET 2007
131 - new globals BDB::VERSION and ..VERSION_STRING.
132 - add db_upgrade.
133 - do not die in DESTROY after explicit db_close and similar
134 operations.
135
136 1.3 Fri Dec 7 14:36:25 CET 2007
137 - db_put and c_put leaked memory like hell (reported by Danny).
138 - de-IO::AIO-ify the documentation.
139 - port to microsofts pseudo-C from hell.
140 - added mutex_set_increment, mutex_set_tas_spins
141 and mutex_set_max, mutex_set_align.
142
143 1.2 Tue Dec 4 11:12:47 CET 2007
144 - after fork, invest some work to make sure that the poll_fileno
145 stays stable (by dup2'ing the new fd over the old one), to make
146 it easier for programs/libs that don't control their forking
147 behaviour and cannot recreate their watchers.
148 - added missing DB::RDONLY (reported by Danny).
149
150 1.1 Sun Sep 16 20:15:55 CEST 2007
151 - flag and check TXN_DEADLOCK flag for easier transaction
152 programming (see db_txn_finish).
153 - new custom db_txn_finish request.
154 - improved docs.
155
156 1.0 Mon Aug 13 14:02:42 CEST 2007
157 - some updates for db 4.6.
158 - vastly improved documentation, i.e. there is some now.
159 - this module has been tested a lot in the Crossfire TRT server.
160
161 0.5 Sun Jul 8 16:57:03 CEST 2007
162 - port to db 4.4.20 (probably any 4.4 version).
163 - added bdb error constants.
164 - add set_errfile/set_msgfile/set_verbose.
165 - shared code between IO::AIO and BDB.
166 - upgrade to xthread.h from IO::AIO for win32 compatibility.
167 - port to win32 (there is an unexplainable hang in
168 db_sequence_get...).
169
170 0.1 Mon Mar 5 20:44:18 CET 2007
171 - cloned from IO::AIO.
