[Jython-dev] kdbm

[Samuele P. <pe...@in...>]

Hi. The following could be useful in order to add some *dbm support to jython.
It seems that jdbm offer a gdbm-like functionality and has a BSD-like
license.

Thanks to mlh. Samuele.

Hi, there!

Just a thought... Perhaps Jython could have use the jdbm
module? (I'm sure writing jdbm.py wouldn't be too hard...)
Then the shelve module could be used for real-sized
databases in Jython too... (Dumbdbm is a bit... Dumb ;)

I haven't tried jdbm myself, but I know some people who say
it is very good/fast:
