# @(#)README 8.28 (Berkeley) 11/2/95
This is version 2.0-ALPHA of the Berkeley DB code.
THIS IS A PRELIMINARY RELEASE.
For information on compiling and installing this software, see the file
PORT/README.
Newer versions of this software will periodically be made available by
anonymous ftp from ftp.cs.berkeley.edu:ucb/4bsd/db.tar.{Z,gz} and from
ftp.harvard.edu:margo/db.tar.{Z,gz}. If you want to receive announcements
of future releases of this software, send email to the contact address
below.
Email questions may be addressed to dbinfo@eecs.harvard.edu.
============================================
Distribution contents:
README This file.
CHANGELOG List of changes, per version.
btree B+tree access method.
db The db_open interface routine.
docs Various USENIX papers, and the formatted manual pages.
hash Extended linear hashing access method.
lock Lock manager.
log Log manager.
man The unformatted manual pages.
mpool The buffer manager support.
mutex Mutex support.
recno The fixed/variable length record access method.
test Test package.
txn Transaction support.
============================================
Debugging:
If you're running a memory checker (e.g. Purify) on DB, make sure that
you recompile it with "-DPURIFY" in the CFLAGS, first. By default,
allocated pages are not initialized by the DB code, and they will show
up as reads of uninitialized memory in the buffer write routines.
