1.9 Mon Dec 26 02:46:09 CET 2011 |
| 9 |
- partial: update for libdb 5.2 (to make it compile only). |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
1.89 Fri Jul 29 11:29:21 CEST 2011 |
| 12 |
- make it compile and test successfully with libdb 5.1, but |
| 13 |
do not add any new symbols or functionality. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
1.88 Wed Mar 31 02:43:42 CEST 2010 |
| 16 |
- a double fork partially killed the event pipe (great testcase |
| 17 |
by dormando). affects IO::AIO, BDB and Async::Interrupt. |
| 18 |
- suck steve's dick and rename our symbols to avoid colliding |
| 19 |
with nonstandard identifier spam on the broken os x pseudo-os. |
| 20 |
affects IO::AIO and BDB. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
1.87 Tue Dec 22 03:06:09 CET 2009 |
| 23 |
- db 4.8 has removed XA resource manager functionality, |
| 24 |
cope with it. |
| 25 |
- add LOGVERSION, LOGVERSION_LATCHING, LOGOLDVER |
| 26 |
symbols. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
1.86 Fri Dec 4 16:03:21 CET 2009 |
| 29 |
- port to broken loser platform. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
1.85 Thu Nov 12 03:22:21 CET 2009 |
| 32 |
- speed up object creation/type checking considerably |
| 33 |
by caching the stashes. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
1.84 Wed Aug 5 13:52:21 CEST 2009 |
| 36 |
- require common sense. |
| 37 |
- use schmorp.h for pipe, taking advantage of eventfd. |
| 38 |
- fix a bug in event pipe creation code on win32. |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
1.83 Sun Jan 11 01:52:56 CET 2009 |
| 41 |
- fix db_upgrade, add db_verify. |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
1.82 Sun Jan 4 11:22:44 CET 2009 |
| 44 |
- use our own socketpair emulation (stolen from libev), as perl's |
| 45 |
doesn't work on vista, which returns fantasy port numbers |
| 46 |
in getpeer/sockname. |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
1.81 Tue Oct 21 04:20:25 CEST 2008 |
| 49 |
- check that mutable arguments can be downgraded - this |
| 50 |
/very indirectly) ensures that output variables won't |
| 51 |
have spurious utf-8 flags. |
| 52 |
- fix opmode checdk in db_c_get, db_c_pget again. |
| 53 |
- allow undef/default arguments for db_compact, for a |
| 54 |
crash-free tomorrow! |
| 55 |
- fix a memleak in db_key_range. |
| 56 |
- started a common pitfdalls section. |
| 57 |
- added db_env_log_archive. |
| 58 |
- added db->set_pagesize. |
| 59 |
- added BDB::IGNORE_LEASE. |
| 60 |
- reworked documentation structure. |
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
1.801 Mon Sep 29 04:58:03 CEST 2008 |
| 63 |
- removed ptrace.h and user.h includes thta have been left in |
| 64 |
erronously. |
| 65 |
- "port" to buggy windows compilers. again. |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
1.8 Sat Sep 27 14:01:37 CEST 2008 |
| 68 |
- non-callback requests will now - by default - be executed in the |
| 69 |
foreground, which is much faster, but doesn't allow parallel |
| 70 |
processing of other, event-based, requests. |
| 71 |
- functions that modify their arguments now croak when a constant |
| 72 |
is passed to them. |
| 73 |
- db_c_get/db_c_pget requests did not correctly test the operation flags. |
| 74 |
- db_pget now correctly updates the pkey argument. |
| 75 |
- keep references to the passed env/db/etc. objects so they |
| 76 |
can't get destroyed while requests are still outstanding. |
| 77 |
- fixed a few minor stack issues. |
| 78 |
|
| 79 |
1.71 Tue Jul 29 05:30:24 CEST 2008 |
| 80 |
- add const char * to typemap for possible 5.6 support. |
| 81 |
- untested support for db4.3. |
| 82 |
- berkelydb needs seriously larger stacksizes (on x86 at least) |
| 83 |
then what the default xthread.h provides. |
| 84 |
|
| 85 |
1.7 Thu Jul 17 14:09:25 CEST 2008 |
| 86 |
- use a totally different mechanism to pass callbacks to |
| 87 |
requests (see manpage). |
| 88 |
- optional arguments before the callback can now be left out. |
| 89 |
- use less memory per request, probably be a bit faster, too. |
| 90 |
- fix a memory leak (callbacks were never freed). |
| 91 |
- add a basic testsuite. |
| 92 |
- add (untested) support for cdsgroup_begin and db_exists. |
| 93 |
- make BDB::VERSION compatible to UNIVERSAL::VERSION. |
| 94 |
|
| 95 |
1.6 Tue Jul 8 10:34:58 CEST 2008 |
| 96 |
- add new BDB::VERSION function for easy version checks. |
| 97 |
- work around broken bsd headers once more. |
| 98 |
- support for berkeley db 4.7 added. |
| 99 |
- add support for log_set_config and it's constants, |
| 100 |
and set_intermediate_dir_mode. |
| 101 |
- add db_env_dbrename and db_env_dbremove. |
| 102 |
|
| 103 |
1.5 Sat May 10 22:22:42 CEST 2008 |
| 104 |
- port to solaris perls configured for old posix |
| 105 |
(analysed by Jost Krieger). |
| 106 |
- do our own stack memory management for threads - linux |
| 107 |
allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you |
| 108 |
use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads |
| 109 |
on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN |
| 110 |
and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k). |
| 111 |
- support AnyEvent::BDB. |
| 112 |
|
| 113 |
1.45 Sun Mar 30 10:01:00 CEST 2008 |
| 114 |
- work around win32 perl's broken filehandles |
| 115 |
(this cannot work in all cases, so watch out). |
| 116 |
|
| 117 |
1.44 Sun Mar 30 08:28:11 CEST 2008 |
| 118 |
- encode filenames as utf-8 (for bdb/win32) |
| 119 |
or binary (everywhere else). |
| 120 |
- patch $! to support stringification of BDB errno values |
| 121 |
(utter hack, this should be pluggable :). |
| 122 |
- fix prototypes of (void) functions. |
| 123 |
|
| 124 |
1.43 Sun Jan 13 11:52:49 CET 2008 |
| 125 |
- differentiate between nuked and undef objects, so as to |
| 126 |
not throw an exception when destroying closed handles. |
| 127 |
|
| 128 |
1.42 Tue Dec 25 15:22:50 CET 2007 |
| 129 |
- do not automatically call set_thread_count. |
| 130 |
|
| 131 |
1.41 Sat Dec 22 08:32:41 CET 2007 |
| 132 |
- add cursor->set_priority. |
| 133 |
- minor optimisations and checks. |
| 134 |
- port to microsoft pseudo-C again. |
| 135 |
|
| 136 |
1.4 Wed Dec 12 02:20:39 CET 2007 |
| 137 |
- new globals BDB::VERSION and ..VERSION_STRING. |
| 138 |
- add db_upgrade. |
| 139 |
- do not die in DESTROY after explicit db_close and similar |
| 140 |
operations. |
| 141 |
|
| 142 |
1.3 Fri Dec 7 14:36:25 CET 2007 |
| 143 |
- db_put and c_put leaked memory like hell (reported by Danny). |
| 144 |
- de-IO::AIO-ify the documentation. |
| 145 |
- port to microsofts pseudo-C from hell. |
| 146 |
- added mutex_set_increment, mutex_set_tas_spins |
| 147 |
and mutex_set_max, mutex_set_align. |
| 148 |
|
| 149 |
1.2 Tue Dec 4 11:12:47 CET 2007 |
| 150 |
- after fork, invest some work to make sure that the poll_fileno |
| 151 |
stays stable (by dup2'ing the new fd over the old one), to make |
| 152 |
it easier for programs/libs that don't control their forking |
| 153 |
behaviour and cannot recreate their watchers. |
| 154 |
- added missing DB::RDONLY (reported by Danny). |
| 155 |
|
| 156 |
1.1 Sun Sep 16 20:15:55 CEST 2007 |
| 157 |
- flag and check TXN_DEADLOCK flag for easier transaction |
| 158 |
programming (see db_txn_finish). |
| 159 |
- new custom db_txn_finish request. |
| 160 |
- improved docs. |
| 161 |
|
| 162 |
1.0 Mon Aug 13 14:02:42 CEST 2007 |
| 163 |
- some updates for db 4.6. |
| 164 |
- vastly improved documentation, i.e. there is some now. |
| 165 |
- this module has been tested a lot in the Crossfire TRT server. |
| 166 |
|
| 167 |
0.5 Sun Jul 8 16:57:03 CEST 2007 |
| 168 |
- port to db 4.4.20 (probably any 4.4 version). |
| 169 |
- added bdb error constants. |
| 170 |
- add set_errfile/set_msgfile/set_verbose. |
| 171 |
- shared code between IO::AIO and BDB. |
| 172 |
- upgrade to xthread.h from IO::AIO for win32 compatibility. |
| 173 |
- port to win32 (there is an unexplainable hang in |
| 174 |
db_sequence_get...). |
| 175 |
|
| 176 |
0.1 Mon Mar 5 20:44:18 CET 2007 |
| 177 |
- cloned from IO::AIO. |
| 178 |
