1 | Revision history for DBM::Deep. |
2 | |
0ee72d65 |
3 | 0.99_04 Jan 24 22:30:00 2007 EDT |
4 | - Added the missing lib/DBM/Deep.pod file to the MANIFEST |
5 | - Fixed a poorly-designed test that was failing depending on what Clone::Any |
6 | - was using. |
7 | - All "use 5.6.0;" lines are now "use 5.006_000;" to avoid warnings about |
8 | unsupported vstrings in bleadperl. |

11 | - THIS VERSION IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH FILES FROM ALL OTHER PRIOR VERSIONS. |
12 | - The fileformat changed completely. I will be writing a converter, but |
13 | it's not there right now. Do NOT expect that this module will |
14 | correctly detect older versions and handle them sanely. Sanity will be |
15 | there for 1.00, but we're not there yet, are we? |

16 | - Converted to use FileHandle::Fmode to handle filehandle status checks |
13ff93d5 |
17 | - Fixed bug with deleting already-deleted items on Win32 (reported by Nigel Sandever) |
7645a22a |
18 | - The guts of how transactions work has been rewritten to better handle |
19 | some edgecases. This required a complete rewrite of the engine. |
20 | - Freespace management is now in place. It's not perfect, but it's there. |
21 | - The rewrite of the engine required a rewrite of how first_key/next_key |
22 | was implemented. This should result in significant speed improvements. |
23 | - Self-reference has been removed. This means you cannot do: |
24 | $db->{foo} = { x => 'y' }; |
25 | $db->{bar} = $db->{foo}; |
26 | I hope to be able to return this functionality by 1.00, but I cannot |
27 | promise anything. To do this properly, it requires refcounting in order |
28 | to correctly handle deletions and transactions. Once you move away from |
29 | a simple tree, everything becomes really hard. |

35 | - Added explicit dependency on Perl 5.6.0 |
e06824f8 |
36 | - Digest::MD5 requires 5.6.0 |
37 | - Sub::Uplevel (dep of Test::Exception) requires 5.6.0 |
95967a5e |
38 | - Removed error()/clear_error() |
d2aefba0 |
39 | - All error-handling is done with die() |
e06824f8 |
40 | - Broke out DBM::Deep's code into DBM::Deep::Engine |
d2aefba0 |
41 | - Tied variables can no longer be assigned to a DBM::Deep object. |
42 | - This includes cross-file assignments. |
43 | - Autovivification now works |
44 | - This is a consequence of the fact that all assignments are tied. |
45 | - set_pack() and set_digest() have been removed. |
46 | - Instead, you will now pass the appropriate values into new() |
47 | - A pack_size parameter has been added to make 64-bit files easier |
c8602313 |
48 | - Transactions now work |

50 | 0.983 Apr 10 20:00:00 2006 Pacific |
51 | - Added patch inspired by Jeff Janes (Thanks!) |
52 | - Autovivification now works correctly |
53 | - The following now works correctly |
54 | my %hash = ( a => 1 ); |
55 | $db->{hash} = \%hash; |
56 | $hash{b} = 2; |
57 | cmp_ok( $db->{hash}{b}, '==', 2 ); |
58 | - (RT#18530) - DBM::Deep now plays nicely with -l |
59 | |
60 | 0.982 Mar 08 11:00:00 2006 Pacific |
61 | - Fixed smoketests that were failing on Win32 |
62 | - Added restriction for Perl 5.6.0 or higher. |
63 | - Digest::MD5 and Sub::Uplevel (dep of Test::Exception) require 5.6+ |
64 | |
65 | 0.981 Mar 06 11:00:00 2006 Pacific |

a8bd842e |
69 | - Added in patch by David Cantrell to allow use of DATA filehandle |
bcbe5355 |
70 | - Fixed bug where attempting to export() a structure that used autobless would die |
e3cb84dc |
71 | - Fixed arraytest slowness by localizing $SIG{__DIE__} to prevent Test::Builder's |
72 | $SIG{__DIE__} from being called. (q.v. http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/eval.html) |
4d35d856 |
73 | - More methods have been made private: |
74 | - root() is now _root() |
75 | - base_offset() is now _base_offset() |
76 | - fh() is now _fh() |

ffed8b01 |
82 | - Migration to Module::Build with EU::MM backwards compatibility |
e096f245 |
83 | - Migration of all tests to use Test::More and Test::Exception |
84 | - Added Devel::Cover report to DBM::Deep POD |
85 | - Test coverage improved to 89.6% (and climbing) |
8b957036 |
86 | - The following methods have been renamed to reflect their private nature: |
87 | - init() is now _init() |
14a3acb6 |
88 | - open() is now _open() |
0207d648 |

261d1296 |
90 | - load_tag() is now _load_tag() |
91 | - index_lookup() is now _index_lookup() |

99 | - copy_node() is now _copy_node() |
100 | - throw_error() is now _throw_error() |
217fef02 |
101 | - The various tied classes have been broken out. This means that testing |
102 | "ref( $obj ) eq 'DBM::Deep'" will now fail. The correct test is |
103 | "eval { $obj->isa( 'DBM::Deep' ) }". |
104 | - The various methods like push and delete now have the same return values as |
105 | the standard builtins. |
9d085683 |
106 | - TIEARRAY and TIEHASH now check their parameters more thoroughly |
e096f245 |
107 | - Negative indices for arrays works as expected, including throwing the appropriate |
108 | errors. |
26138c00 |
109 | - RT #16877 is fixed (DBM::Deep broken with Perl 5.9.3+). |
110 | - RT #14893 is fixed (tie() and new() use different parameter lists). |
111 | - A bug with optimize and threading is fixed. |
112 | - autobless has received some attention, resulting in a number of bugs fixed. |
90f93b43 |
113 | - Removed mode option as it just caused confusion. |
3ea61317 |
114 | - Removed volatile option as it is pretty useless (use locking instead) |
115 | - Locking now implicitly enables autoflush |

116 | |
117 | 0.96 Oct 14 09:55:00 2005 Pacific |
118 | - Fixed build (OS X hidden files killed it) |
119 | - You can now pass in an optional filehandle to the constructor |
120 | |
121 | 0.95 Oct 12 13:58:00 2005 Pacific |
122 | - Added optional autobless flag to preserve and restore blessed hashes |
123 | - Fixed bug where 0 could not be fetched using get_next_key |
124 | - Fixed bug where tie() constructor didn't accept a hash ref for args |
125 | - optimize() now preserves user/group/permissions |
126 | - Errors are now FATAL (meaning it calls die()), unless you set debug flag |
127 | |
128 | 0.94 Apr 13 19:00:26 2004 Pacific |
129 | - Fixed bug reported by John Cardenas (corruption at key level when |
130 | replace of less data was done on bucket) |
131 | |
132 | 0.93 Feb 15 19:53:17 2004 Pacific |
133 | - Fixed optmize() on Win32 where orig file couldn't be overwritten unless |
134 | filehandle was closed first. This change introduces a potential race |
135 | condition when using locking and optmize() on Win32, but it can be |
136 | fixed in the future using a soft copy instead of Perl's rename(). |
137 | |
138 | 0.92 Feb 12 19:10:22 2004 Pacific |
139 | - Fixed bug where passing a reference to a different DBM::Deep object |
140 | would still result in an internal reference. |
141 | - Added export() method for recursively extracting hashes/arrays into |
142 | standard in-memory Perl structures. |
143 | - Added import() method for recursively importing existing Perl hash/ |
144 | array structures |
145 | - Fixed bug where optimize() wouldn't work if base level of DB was |
146 | an array instead of a hash. |
147 | |
148 | 0.91 Feb 12 02:30:22 2004 Pacific |
149 | - Fixed bug with splice() when length of removed section was 0 |
150 | - Updated POD re: circular refs and optimize() |
151 | - Had to jump version numbers to 0.91 because in previous releases |
152 | I used only a single digit after the decimal which was confusing |
153 | the CPAN indexer. |
154 | |
155 | 0.10 Feb 11 08:58:35 2004 Pacific |
156 | - Fixed bug where default file mode was CLEARING files (Thanks Rich!) |
157 | - Added experimental support for circular references |
158 | - Fixed bugs in shift(), unshift() and splice() where nested objects |
159 | in array would be recursively re-stored as basic hashes/arrays |
160 | - Fixed typos in POD docs |
161 | |
162 | 0.9 Feb 10 03:25:48 2004 Pacific |
163 | - Added Filters for storing/fetching keys/values |
164 | - Added hook for supplying own hashing algorithm |
165 | - FIxed some typos in POD docs, added new sections |
166 | |
167 | 0.8 Feb 8 02:38:22 2004 Pacific |
168 | - Renamed to DBM::Deep for CPAN |
169 | - Added optimize() method for rekindling unused space |
170 | - Now returning hybrid tie()/OO object from new() |
171 | - Basic error handling introduced |
172 | - Added debug mode for printing errors to STDERR |
173 | - Added TYPE_HASH and TYPE_ARRAY constants for "type" param |
174 | - Added clone() method for safe copying of objects |
175 | - Wrote POD documentation |
176 | - Added set_pack() function for manipulating LONG_SIZE / LONG_PACK |
177 | - Added aliases for most tied functions for public use |
178 | - Now setting binmode() on FileHandle for Win32 |
179 | - Added 45 unit tests |
180 | |
181 | 0.7 Jan 4 11:31:50 2003 UTC |
182 | - Renamed to DeepDB |
183 | - Changed file signature to DPDB (not compatible with older versions) |
184 | - Converted array length to packed long instead of sprintf()ed string |
185 | |
186 | 0.6 Dec 31 15:12:03 2002 UTC |
187 | - Some misc optimizations for speed |
188 | |
189 | 0.5 Oct 18 08:55:29 2002 UTC |
190 | - support for force_return_next parameter in traverse_index() method for |
191 | ultra-fast combined key search/removal |
192 | |

198 | |
199 | 0.2 Aug 6 16:37:32 2002 UTC |
200 | - Removed base index caching, as it can cause problems when two processes |
201 | are populating the db at the same time (even with locking) |
202 | |
203 | 0.1 Jun 3 08:06:26 2002 UTC |
204 | - initial release |
