TDB_File ======== This module provides bindings to Andrew Tridgell's "Trivial Database" library (libtdb). TDB is a simple database similar to gdbm, but allows multiple simultaneous readers and writers. TDB_File provides a simple tie() interface, similar to DB_File and friends; and an object-oriented interface, which provides access to all of the functions in the tdb library. Currently the logging function is set globally, so the last logging function to be set will be used for all TDB_File objects. Other than this limitation, all functionality provided by the TDB C interface should be available. INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install DEPENDENCIES This module requires the TDB library, available from: http://tdb.sourceforge.net/ TDB_File was developed using libtdb 1.0.6.
