An archive in compressed format +is in ucb/4bsd/db.tar.Z, or in gzip format in ucb/4bsd/db.tar.gz. If +you'd like to receive announcements of future releases of this software, +send email to the contact address below. + +Email questions may be addressed to Keith Bostic at bostic@cs.berkeley.edu. + +============================================ +Distribution contents: + +Makefile.inc Ignore this, it's the 4.4BSD subsystem Makefile. +PORT The per OS/architecture directories to use to build + libdb.a, if you're not running 4.4BSD. See the file + PORT/README for more information. +README This file. +btree The B+tree routines. +changelog List of changes, per version. +db The dbopen(3) interface routine. +docs Various USENIX papers, and the formatted manual pages. +hash The extended linear hashing routines. +man The unformatted manual pages. +mpool The memory pool routines. +recno The fixed/variable length record routines. +test Test package. + +============================================ +Debugging: + +If you're running a memory checker (e.g. Purify) on DB, make sure that +you recompile it with "-DPURIFY" in the CFLAGS, first. By default, +allocated pages are not initialized by the DB code, and they will show +up as reads of uninitialized memory in the buffer write routines. |
