The sdbm library is meant to clone the proven functionality of +ndbm as closely as possible, including a few improvements. It is +practical, easy to understand, and compatible. The sdbm library is not +derived from any licensed, proprietary or copyrighted software. + +The sdbm programming interface is totally compatible with ndbm and +includes a slight improvement in database initialization. It is also +expected to be binary-compatible under most UN*X versions that support the +ndbm library. |
