GNU gdbm files provide persistent mappings from arbitrary keys to values. tclgdbm uses these features to provide mappings from (short) key -strings to (larger) data strings. The following example illustrates -the basic new commands, see below for details: - -## -## load dll -## -package require Tclgdbm - -## -## open database "test.data" for read/write (create if not existent) -## -set db [gdbm open test.data rwc]; -foreach i {1 2 3 4 5 6} { - # key is $i, store string "This data for $i" - gdbm store $db $i "This data for $i" ; -} - -## -## gdbm list $db gives list of all keys in $db -## -foreach key [lsort [gdbm list $db]] { - # retrieve each content and display it - puts stdout "$key [gdbm fetch $db $key]" ; -} - -gdbm close $db ; - -Commands --------- - -gdbm open <file> [r|rw|rwc|rwn] - -Opens a gdbm database <file> with an optional mode. If the mode is not -given it is opened for reading (r). The mode can be (r) (read only), -(rw) (read,write), (rwc) (read,write and create if not already -existent), and (rwn) (read,write and create a new database regardless -if one exists). The command returns a handle <name> which is used to -refer to the open database. - -gdbm close <name> - -Close a gdbm database with the name <name>. - -gdbm insert <name> <key> <content> - -<name> is the name of a gdbm database previously opened with gdbm -open. Inserts the data <content> giving it the key <key>. If data -with <key> is already in the database an error is generated.

Searches for <key> in the database and returns the associated -contents, or returns a tcl error if the key is not found. - -gdbm delete <name> <key> - -<name> is the name of a gdbm database previously opened with gdbm -open. Searches for <key> and deletes it in the database. If <key> is -not found an error is generated. Nothing returned. - -gdbm list <name> - -<name> is the name of a gdbm database previously opened with gdbm -open. Returns a list of all keys in the database. - -gdbm reorganize <name> - -<name> is the name of a gdbm database previously opened with gdbm -open. This routine can be used to shrink the size of the database -file if there have been a lot of deletions. Nothing returned. - -gdbm exists <name> <key> - -Returns "0" if <key> is not found within the previously opened -database <name>, "1" otherwise. - -gdbm firstkey <name> -gdbm nextkey <name> <lastkey> - -A first/next scheme permits retrieving all keys from a database in -sequential (but unsorted!) order. gdbm firstkey <name> returns a -starting key, which may be used to retrieve the following key with -nextkey. nextkey returns the next key to a given previous key. When no -next key is available, the empty string is returned. - - -Speed ------ - -Here are some (real) execution times on a SparcStation 2 (SunOS -4.1.1).
