Hello, This is to inform you that GNU dbm version 1.25 is available for download. This is a stable release. See the end of this message for a list of important changes.
GNU dbm is a library of database functions that use extensible hashing and work similar to the standard UNIX dbm. These routines are provided to a programmer needing to create and manipulate a hashed database. For detailed information, visit <https://www.gnu.org/software/gdbm>. Here are the compressed sources: https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdbm/gdbm-1.25.tar.gz 1.2M Here are the checksums: MD5 --- 46266720c7980b75f29e3554aeaeb7a8 gdbm-1.25.tar.gz SHA1 ---- d55bdf2bb5f92f80006166dd8a8323cb2a428bd1 gdbm-1.25.tar.gz SHA256 ------ d02db3c5926ed877f8817b81cd1f92f53ef74ca8c6db543fbba0271b34f393ec gdbm-1.25.tar.gz Noteworthy changes in this release: * New function: gdbm_open_ext This function provides a general-purpose interface for opening and creating GDBM files. It combines the possibilities of gdbm_open and gdbm_fd_open and provides detailed control over database file locking. * New gdbmtool command: collisions The command prints the collision chains for the current bucket, or for buckets identified by its arguments. * Pipelines in gdbmtool The output of a gdbmtool command can be connected to the input of a shell command using the traditional pipeline syntax. * Fix a bug in block coalescing code * Other bugfixes Kind regards, Sergey
