--- /dev/null
+
+0.1
+
+ First Release.
+
+0.2
+
+ When DB_File is opening a database file it no longer terminates the
+ process if dbopen returned an error. 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.

=head2 Extra Methods
-As you can see from the example above, the tied array interface is
-quite limited. To make the interface more useful, a number of methods
-are supplied with B<DB_File> to simulate the standard array operations
-that are not currently implemented in Perl's tied array interface. All
-these methods are accessed via the object returned from the tie call.
+If you are using a version of Perl earlier than 5.004_57, the tied
+array interface is quite limited. The example script above will work,
+but you won't be able to use C<push>, C<pop>, C<shift>, C<unshift>
+etc. with the tied array.
+
+To make the interface more useful for older versions of Perl, a number
+of methods are supplied with B<DB_File> to simulate the missing array
+operations. All these methods are accessed via the object returned from
+the tie call.
Here are the methods:

1.54 - Fixed bug in the fd method
1.55 - Fix for AIX from Jarkko Hietaniemi
1.56 - No change to DB_File.xs
+ 1.57 - added the #undef op to allow building with Threads support.
+ 1.58 - 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.
