Does TDB (trivial database) binding for Ruby exist ?

[MiG]

Hello,

I've seen benchmarks of QDBM, TDB, GDBM, DB4 and DB1 databases.
TDB was the winner so I googled to find Ruby binding for TDB, but was =20
unsuccessful.

Has anyone written it or seen it somewhere?

Thank you,
jan

Do you really need the fastest database of those four, or just one
thats fast enough? Have you tried using another DB and seeing how it
performs for your application? (Incidentally I would suggest KirbyBase
[1], since it is pure ruby, and all the code is in one file so it's
easy to distribute with your app).

I need TDB because it is the fastest hash db. The second reason is that i=
t =20
is really crash-resistant
(especially in comparison with QDBM).

http://sourceforge.net/projects/tdb :

TDB is a Trivial Database. In concept, it is very much like GDBM,and =20
BSD's DB except that it allows multiple simultaneous writers and uses =20
lockinginternally to keep writers from trampling on each other.TDB is =20
also extremely small.

I've had a look to tdb's code and how to write a ruby binding.
I'm not C fun but I don't think I'm unable to write it.
It's all about time )
