(description |
|||
"GNU dbm (or GDBM, for short) 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. |
|||
|
|||
The basic use of GDBM is to store key/data pairs in a data file. Each |
|||
key must be unique and each key is paired with only one data item. |
|||
|
|||
The library provides primitives for storing key/data pairs, searching |
|||
and retrieving the data by its key and deleting a key along with its |
|||
data. It also support sequential iteration over all key/data pairs in a |
|||
database. |
|||
|
|||
For compatibility with programs using old UNIX dbm function, the package |
|||
also provides traditional dbm and ndbm interfaces.") |
