=head1 NAME
AnyDBM_File - provide framework for multiple DBMs
NDBM_File, DB_File, GDBM_File, SDBM_File, ODBM_File - various DBM implementations
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use AnyDBM_File;
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module is a "pure virtual base class"--it has nothing of its own.
It's just there to inherit from one of the various DBM packages. It
prefers ndbm for compatibility reasons with Perl 4, then Berkeley DB (See
L<DB_File>), GDBM, SDBM (which is always there--it comes with Perl), and
finally ODBM. This way old programs that used to use NDBM via dbmopen()
can still do so, but new ones can reorder @ISA:
BEGIN { @AnyDBM_File::ISA = qw(DB_File GDBM_File NDBM_File) }
use AnyDBM_File;
Having multiple DBM implementations makes it trivial to copy database formats:
use Fcntl; use NDBM_File; use DB_File;
tie %newhash, 'DB_File', $new_filename, O_CREAT|O_RDWR;
tie %oldhash, 'NDBM_File', $old_filename, 1, 0;
%newhash = %oldhash;
