Revision history for DBM::Deep.

+ - THIS VERSION IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH FILES FROM ALL OTHER PRIOR VERSIONS.
+ - The fileformat changed completely. I will be writing a converter, but
+ it's not there right now. Do NOT expect that this module will
+ correctly detect older versions and handle them sanely. Sanity will be
+ there for 1.00, but we're not there yet, are we?
- Converted to use FileHandle::Fmode to handle filehandle status checks
- Fixed bug with deleting already-deleted items on Win32 (reported by Nigel Sandever)
+ - The guts of how transactions work has been rewritten to better handle
+ some edgecases. This required a complete rewrite of the engine.
+ - Freespace management is now in place. It's not perfect, but it's there.
+ - The rewrite of the engine required a rewrite of how first_key/next_key
+ was implemented. This should result in significant speed improvements.
+ - Self-reference has been removed. This means you cannot do:
+ $db->{foo} = { x => 'y' };
+ $db->{bar} = $db->{foo};
+ I hope to be able to return this functionality by 1.00, but I cannot
+ promise anything. To do this properly, it requires refcounting in order
+ to correctly handle deletions and transactions. Once you move away from
+ a simple tree, everything becomes really hard.
