hamsterdb: release 0.4.2 (unstable)

May 17th, 2007

Changes in this Release

  • rewrote/improved the header file comments
  • replaced the freelist with a bitmap, which is faster and more efficient
  • added a unittest suite based on cppunit with about 90 unittests so far

Some minor bugs were fixed as well. To see a list of all changes, read the CHANGELOG.

Known Issues

Database files from 0.4.1 are not compatible to 0.4.2.

Although no bugs are known, this release is marked “unstable”, because the database file format is still subject to change. The first stable release will be version 1.0.

Roadmap

The next item on my TODO list is to improve the documentation and to write a tutorial. I have already started - please send me a mail if you find grammar or spelling errors in any of the released files :)
