<h1 align=center>Using Berkeley DB with Perl</h1>
|
|
<p>The original Perl module for Berkeley DB was DB_File, which was written to
|
|
interface to Berkeley DB version 1.85. The newer Perl module for Berkeley DB is
|
|
BerkeleyDB, which was written to interface to version 2.0 and subsequent
|
|
releases. Because Berkeley DB version 2.X has a compatibility API for version
|
|
1.85, you can (and should!) build DB_File using version 2.X of Berkeley DB,
|
|
although DB_File will still only support the 1.85 functionality.
|
|
<p>DB_File is distributed with the standard Perl source distribution (look
|
|
in the directory "ext/DB_File"). You can find both DB_File and BerkeleyDB
|
|
on CPAN, the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network of mirrored FTP sites.
|
|
The master CPAN site is
|
|
<a href="ftp://ftp.funet.fi/">ftp://ftp.funet.fi/</a>.
|
|
<p>Versions of both BerkeleyDB and DB_File that are known to work correctly
|
|
with each release of Berkeley DB are included in the distributed Berkeley DB source
|
|
tree, in the subdirectories <b>perl.BerkeleyDB</b> and
|
|
<b>perl.DB_File</b>. Each of those directories contains a
|
|
<b>README</b> file with instructions on installing and using those
|
|
modules.
|
|
<p>The Perl interface is not maintained by Sleepycat Software. Questions
|
|
about the DB_File and BerkeleyDB modules are best asked on the Usenet
|
|
newsgroup comp.lang.perl.modules.
