-
-0.1
-
- First Release.
-
-0.2
-
- When DB_File is opening a database file it no longer terminates the
- process if dbopen returned an error. This allows file protection
- errors to be caught at run time. Thanks to Judith Grass
- <grass@cybercash.com> for spotting the bug.
-
-0.3
-
- Added prototype support for multiple btree compare callbacks.
-
-1.0
-
- DB_File has been in use for over a year. To reflect that, the
- version number has been incremented to 1.0.
-
- Added complete support for multiple concurrent callbacks.
-
- Using the push method on an empty list didn't work properly. This
- has been fixed.
-
-1.01
-
- Fixed a core dump problem with SunOS.
-
- The return value from TIEHASH wasn't set to NULL when dbopen
- returned an error.
-
-1.02
-
- Merged OS/2 specific code into DB_File.xs
-
- Removed some redundant code in DB_File.xs.
-
- Documentation update.
-
- Allow negative subscripts with RECNO interface.
-
- Changed the default flags from O_RDWR to O_CREAT|O_RDWR.
-
- The example code which showed how to lock a database needed a call
- to sync added. Without it the resultant database file was empty.
-
- Added get_dup method.
-
-1.03
-
- Documentation update.
-
- DB_File now imports the constants (O_RDWR, O_CREAT etc.) from Fcntl
- automatically.
-
- The standard hash function exists is now supported.
-
- Modified the behavior of get_dup. When it returns an associative
- array, the value is the count of the number of matching BTREE
- values.
-
-1.04
-
- Minor documentation changes.
-
- Fixed a bug in hash_cb. Patches supplied by Dave Hammen,
- <hammen@gothamcity.jsc.nasa.govt>.
-
- Fixed a bug with the constructors for DB_File::HASHINFO,
- DB_File::BTREEINFO and DB_File::RECNOINFO. Also tidied up the
- constructors to make them -w clean.
-
- Reworked part of the test harness to be more locale friendly.
-
-1.05
-
- Made all scripts in the documentation strict and -w clean.
-
- Added logic to DB_File.xs to allow the module to be built after
- Perl is installed.
-
-1.06
-
- Minor namespace cleanup: Localized PrintBtree.
-
-1.07
-
- Fixed bug with RECNO, where bval wasn't defaulting to "\n".
-
-1.08
-
- Documented operation of bval.
-
-1.09
-
- Minor bug fix in DB_File::HASHINFO, DB_File::RECNOINFO and
- DB_File::BTREEINFO.
-
- Changed default mode to 0666.
-
-1.10
-
- Fixed fd method so that it still returns -1 for in-memory files
- when db 1.86 is used.
-
-1.11
-
- Documented the untie gotcha.
-
-1.12
-
- Documented the incompatibility with version 2 of Berkeley DB.
-
-1.13
-
- Minor changes to DB_FIle.xs and DB_File.pm
-
-1.14
-
- Made it illegal to tie an associative array to a RECNO database and
- an ordinary array to a HASH or BTREE database.
-
-1.15
-
- Patch from Gisle Aas <gisle@aas.no> to suppress "use of undefined
- value" warning with db_get and db_seq.
-
- Patch from Gisle Aas <gisle@aas.no> to make DB_File export only the
- O_* constants from Fcntl.
-
- Removed the DESTROY method from the DB_File::HASHINFO module.
-
- Previously DB_File hard-wired the class name of any object that it
- created to "DB_File". This makes sub-classing difficult. Now
- DB_File creats objects in the namespace of the package it has been
- inherited into.
-
-
-1.16
-
- A harmless looking tab was causing Makefile.PL to fail on AIX 3.2.5
-
- Small fix for the AIX strict C compiler XLC which doesn't like
- __attribute__ being defined via proto.h and redefined via db.h. Fix
- courtesy of Jarkko Hietaniemi.
-
-1.50
-
- DB_File can now build with either DB 1.x or 2.x, but not both at
- the same time.
-
-1.51
-
- Fixed the test harness so that it doesn't expect DB_File to have
- been installed by the main Perl build.
-
-
- Fixed a bug in mapping 1.x O_RDONLY flag to 2.x DB_RDONLY equivalent
-
-1.52
-
- Patch from Nick Ing-Simmons now allows DB_File to build on NT.
- Merged 1.15 patch.
-
-1.53
-
- Added DB_RENUMBER to flags for recno.
-
-1.54
-
- Fixed a small bug in the test harness when run under win32
- The emulation of fd when useing DB 2.x was busted.
-
-1.55
- Merged 1.16 changes.
-
-1.56
- Documented the Solaris 2.5 mutex bug
-
-1.57
- If Perl has been compiled with Threads support,the symbol op will be
- defined. This clashes with a field name in db.h, so it needs to be
- #undef'ed before db.h is included.
-
-1.58
- Tied Array support was enhanced in Perl 5.004_57. DB_File now
- supports PUSH,POP,SHIFT,UNSHIFT & STORESIZE.
-
- Fixed a problem with the use of sv_setpvn. When the size is
- specified as 0, it does a strlen on the data. This was ok for DB
- 1.x, but isn't for DB 2.x.
-
-1.59
- Updated the license section.
-
- Berkeley DB 2.4.10 disallows zero length keys. Tests 32 & 42 in
- db-btree.t and test 27 in db-hash.t failed because of this change.
- Those tests have been zapped.
-
- Added dbinfo to the distribution.
-
-1.60
- Changed the test to check for full tied array support
-
-1.61 19th November 1998
-
- Added a note to README about how to build Berkeley DB 2.x when
