DBD2 Files

To download DBD2:
	(Option 1) Download a tar file (.tz2) here.
		(Unpack with 'tar -x -f <filename>')

	(Option 2) (Developer copy) Select the svn tab from the menu, then navigate to "Tags", and select the release you want.
			Once you are in the release directory, select "DownLoad Snapshot" from the grey bar to cause a zip file of that entire release-candidate to be downloaded to your current directory.

-------------------------------------------------------

To compile this project, download and unzip the source. Then:

	cd dbd*

	[ Edit shared/defines.h to configure or adjust the CAP_* options you wish to include with specific binary variants. (See wiki or manual)]

	autoconf
	./configure [--with-syslog_extras=<n>] [--with-mysqlclient=<directory to mysql/dbi installation if not in system directories>]
	make

Once made you should have 2 binaries in your working directory (dbd2 and dbcl).

-------------------------------------------------------

DBD2 is at the transition point between beta and production. It needs testing in production environments to insure it is as robust under full-load conditions as it indicates it is during testing.

I have been testing / running this code on my laptop for some time now and fixing errors / instabilities as I find them. I feel it is usable enough to give an idea of what it will do in 'real life'.

Barring unexpected surprises, this code will compile on either Linux or Apple OSX and will run as expected and documented. (I need to re-confirm compilation and operation on OSX after changes in Linux).
		I believe it to be stable (and complete) enough to prototype in production environments.
		In the no case should this code currently be considered "production".

All unit-level testing has been successful. All described features are implemented and have been thoroughly tested except where explicitly indicated in the wiki.

Please use the on-line wiki as the most recent / most complete documentation. (I'm working [as in Syslogd2] on individual feature- / function-oriented documenation files).

Please feel free to post questions or comments with any errors or points of confusion / clarification to the discussion forum.

See either the wiki or the included DBD2 reference manual appendices for additional pre-compililation configuration options.
