Revision history for DBM::Deep.
-0.97 ??? ?? ??:??:?? 2006 Pacific
+0.99_01 ??? ?? ??;??:?? 2006 Pacific
+ - Added explicit dependency on Perl 5.6.0
+ - Digest::MD5 requires 5.6.0
+ - Sub::Uplevel (dep of Test::Exception) requires 5.6.0
+ - Removed error()/clear_error()
+ - All error-handling is done with die()
+ - Broke out DBM::Deep's code into DBM::Deep::Engine
+ - Tied variables can no longer be assigned to a DBM::Deep object.
+ - This includes cross-file assignments.
+ - Autovivification now works
+ - This is a consequence of the fact that all assignments are tied.
+ - set_pack() and set_digest() have been removed.
+ - Instead, you will now pass the appropriate values into new()
+ - A pack_size parameter has been added to make 64-bit files easier

+ - Added in patch by David Cantrell to allow use of DATA filehandle
+ - Fixed bug where attempting to export() a structure that used autobless would die
+ - Fixed arraytest slowness by localizing $SIG{__DIE__} to prevent Test::Builder's
+ $SIG{__DIE__} from being called. (q.v. http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/eval.html)
+ - More methods have been made private:
+ - root() is now _root()
+ - base_offset() is now _base_offset()
+ - fh() is now _fh()
+ - type() is now _type()
+ - precalc_sizes() is now _precalc_sizes()

- Reorganization of distribution to a more standard layout
- Migration to Module::Build with EU::MM backwards compatibility
- Migration of all tests to use Test::More and Test::Exception
- RT #14893 is fixed (tie() and new() use different parameter lists).
- A bug with optimize and threading is fixed.
- autobless has received some attention, resulting in a number of bugs fixed.
+ - Removed mode option as it just caused confusion.
+ - Removed volatile option as it is pretty useless (use locking instead)
+ - Locking now implicitly enables autoflush
