| Summary : Ties hashes to databases using shared and exclusive locks
|
Description :
This is a front-end for the DB_File package.
If you tie a hash in read-only mode, this module puts a shared lock on the
database file, copies it to a temporary file, unlocks the original
database, and then ties the tempfile using DB_File.
If you tie the hash in read-write mode, we put an exclusive lock on the
database and tie it directly using DB_File.
The reason I copy the whole file every time I read from it is that this
allows the program to read from the file for as long as it wants to,
without interfering with other people\'s writes. This works well if you
typically have long, sustained reads, and short, bursty writes. See the
README file for help in deciding whether you want to use this package.
You don\'t always need to call untie() explicitly - it will be called for
you when %hash goes out of scope. And if all goes as planned, you\'ll never
know the temporary file ever existed, since it will evaporate when %hash
goes away.
