Next week I will (if nothing goes wrong) publish pybsddb 4.6.4. This release supports distributed transactions and replication, testsuite is way faster, and rewritten to be able to launch tests from multiple threads/processes if you wish, setuptools/pypi support, etc. I think this release would be appropiate to integrate in Python. I think most demands are solved and new features are interesting (replication, distributed transactions, do not crash when closing objects in the wrong order...). Also, I completed the documentation, with the full supported API, and ported it to Python 2.6 documentation system. The result: http://www.jcea.es/programacion/pybsddb.htm#bsddb3-4.6.4 http://www.jcea.es/programacion/pybsddb_doc/preview/ I'm very interested in integrating this release in Python 2.6 for the new features, the full documentation, and to get feedback from Buildbot and python-dev community. Also, I would like to avoid to integrate pybsddb late in the python 2.6 release cycle; I hope to be away of my computer in August! :). I'm a bit nervous about syncing, because I have the feeling that python-dev is committing changes to python private branch of pybsddb. I would rather prefer patches send to me and integrate "canonical" pybsddb releases in Python frequently. Somebody suggested to post patches in the tracker, but I think this is not going to work. The diff from current python bsddb and the official version is so huge that nobody could follow it. A more sensible approach, I think, is to "diff" current python pybsddb against the version I used as my root (January?), integrate the changes in current "canonical" pybsddb and, then, drop the entire updated package into python. Then, commits to python pybsddb should be avoided; patches should be send to me. I think this is the only way when integrating a project outside python SVN. Suggestions?. PS: I can't comment on Win64. It is an alien world to me :). - -- Jesus Cea Avion _/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/_/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.jcea.es/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ jabber / xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _/_/ _/_/ _/_/_/_/_/ ~ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "Things are not so easy" _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "My name is Dump, Core Dump" _/_/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "El amor es poner tu felicidad en la felicidad de otro" - Leibniz -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iQCVAwUBSA6oeJlgi5GaxT1NAQItswP+KR15vZWbnYZ23WQHoUozVOWvf+ghG2Q8 acVhCwJajzvxOEfozRMZRmQkPUBmWga1zbHjkHt5c196vku7+X0bDc7aO4T2jRHx 00PbPLGnYth972elTVFfSWpZVNkX/9A4EbtTHVCav105nW+u1/Kod/rY5fzgKcTn SxYkmk4Ax7U= =98uc -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
