README for tcl_gdbm_wrapper Author: Mario Weilguni Current version: 0.1 What is it ---------- tcl_gdbm_wrapper is a package which allows you to connect ("attach") a GDBM database to a array variable. You do not need to write any database access command, this is done for you by tcl_gdbm_wrapper.tcl. What do you need ---------------- Either you need a tclsh (itclsh, itkwish, tixwish...) which supports the "gdbm" command or a version of Tcl >= 7.5 and a dynamic library "libtclgdbm-0.1.so" in any appropriate directory. I've included a slighly modified "tcl+gdbm" package in the directory tcl+gdbm-0.1. It allows you to create a shared library by typing "make shared". It works under Linux ELF with gcc 2.7.2. I've modified the Makefile and gdbmcmd-shared.c (which is a copy of gdbmcmd.c except for this modification). It shoult also work with "tcl+ndbm", but then you have to modify the line >> set DBM(DB) "gdbm" to >> set DBM(DB) "ndbm" You can get the original "tcl+gdbm" package at ftp://ftp.neosoft.com/pub/tcl/alcatel/extensions/tcl+gdbm-0.1.tar.gz and a package of "tcl+ndbm" from: ftp://ftp.neosoft.com/pub/tcl/alcatel/extensions/tcl+ndbm-0.1.tar.gz How it works ------------ It's really simple. Just take a look into demo.tcl. License ------- This package is published under the GNU GPL (GNU General Public License). See file LICENSE for details.
