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 - using HP-UX. - Minor modifications to get the module to build with DB 2.5.x - Fixed a typo in the definition of O_RDONLY, courtesy of Mark Kettenis. - -1.62 30th November 1998 - - Added hints/dynixptx.pl. - Fixed typemap -- 1.61 used PL_na instead of na - -1.63 19th December 1998 - - * Fix to allow DB 2.6.x to build with DB_File - * Documentation updated to use push,pop etc in the RECNO example & - to include the find_dup & del_dup methods. - -1.64 21st February 1999 - - * Tidied the 1.x to 2.x flag mapping code. - * Added a patch from Mark Kettenis <kettenis@wins.uva.nl> to fix a flag - mapping problem with O_RDONLY on the Hurd - * Updated the message that db-recno.t prints when tests 51, 53 or 55 fail. - -1.65 6th March 1999 - - * Fixed a bug in the recno PUSH logic. - * The BOOT version check now needs 2.3.4 when using Berkeley DB version 2 - -1.66 15th March 1999 - - * Added DBM Filter code - -1.67 6th June 1999 - - * Added DBM Filter documentation to DB_File.pm - - * Fixed DBM Filter code to work with 5.004 - - * A few instances of newSVpvn were used in 1.66. This isn't available in - Perl 5.004_04 or earlier. Replaced with newSVpv. - -1.68 22nd July 1999 - - * Merged changes from 5.005_58 - - * Fixed a bug in R_IBEFORE & R_IAFTER procesing in Berkeley DB - 2 databases. - - * Added some of the examples in the POD into the test harness. - -1.69 3rd August 1999 - - * fixed a bug in push -- DB_APPEND wasn't working properly. - - * Fixed the R_SETCURSOR bug introduced in 1.68 - - * Added a new Perl variable $DB_File::db_ver - -1.70 4th August 1999 - - * Initialise $DB_File::db_ver and $DB_File::db_version with - GV_ADD|GV_ADDMULT -- bug spotted by Nick Ing-Simmons. - - * Added a BOOT check to test for equivalent versions of db.h & - libdb.a/so. - -1.71 7th September 1999 - - * Fixed a bug that prevented 1.70 from compiling under win32 - - * Updated to support Berkeley DB 3.x - - * Updated dbinfo for Berkeley DB 3.x file formats. - -1.72 16th January 2000 - - * Added hints/sco.pl - - * The module will now use XSLoader when it is available. When it - isn't it will use DynaLoader. - - * The locking section in DB_File.pm has been discredited. Many thanks - to David Harris for spotting the underlying problem, contributing - the updates to the documentation and writing DB_File::Lock (available - on CPAN). - -1.73 31st May 2000 - - * Added support in version.c for building with threaded Perl. - - * Berkeley DB 3.1 has reenabled support for null keys. The test - harness has been updated to reflect this. - -1.74 10th December 2000 - - * A "close" call in DB_File.xs needed parenthesised to stop win32 from - thinking it was one of its macros. - - * Updated dbinfo to support Berkeley DB 3.1 file format changes. - - * DB_File.pm & the test hasness now use the warnings pragma (when - available). - - * Included Perl core patch 7703 -- size argument for hash_cb is different - for Berkeley DB 3.x - - * Included Perl core patch 7801 -- Give __getBerkeleyDBInfo the ANSI C - treatment. - - * @a = () produced the warning 'Argument "" isn't numeric in entersub' - This has been fixed. Thanks to Edward Avis for spotting this bug. - - * Added note about building under Linux. Included patches. - - * Included Perl core patch 8068 -- fix for bug 20001013.009 - When run with warnings enabled "$hash{XX} = undef " produced an - "Uninitialized value" warning. This has been fixed. - -1.75 17th December 2000 - - * Fixed perl core patch 7703 - - * Added suppport to allow DB_File to be built with Berkeley DB 3.2 -- - btree_compare, btree_prefix and hash_cb needed to be changed. - - * Updated dbinfo to support Berkeley DB 3.2 file format changes. - - |
