Hello,
We are pleased to announce the release of GNU dbm 1.23. See below for a complete list of changes.
GNU dbm is a library of database functions that use extensible hashing and work similar to the standard UNIX dbm. These routines are provided to a programmer needing to create and manipulate a hashed database. For detailed information, visit .
Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature[*]: https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdbm/gdbm-1.23.tar.gz https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdbm/gdbm-1.23.tar.gz.sig
Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth: https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/gdbm/gdbm-1.23.tar.gz https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/gdbm/gdbm-1.23.tar.gz.sig
Here are the SHA1 and SHA256 checksums:

The SHA256 checksum is base64 encoded, instead of the hexadecimal encoding that most checksum tools default to.
Noteworthy changes in this release:
* Bucket cache rewritten using a hash table
Change suggested by Terence Kelly.
* Speed up flushing the changed buckets on disk
* New option codes for gdbm_setopt
** GDBM_GETDBFORMAT
Return the database format.
** GDBM_GETDIRDEPTH
Return the directory depth, i.e. the number of initial (most significant) bits in hash value that are interpreted as index to the directory.
** GDBM_GETBUCKETSIZE
Return maximum number of keys per bucket.
** GDBM_GETCACHEAUTO
Return the status of the automatic cache adjustment.
** GDBM_SETCACHEAUTO
Enable or disable automatic cache adjustment.
Best regards, Sergey
