13 | Description: Python CDB (constant database) library |
14 | D. J. Bernstein's cdb library adapted as a python extension module. You | |
15 | probably already know that cdb files are mappings of keys to values (c.f., | |
16 | dbm and friends), designed for wickedly fast lookups and atomic updates. | |
17 | . | |

18 | This interface presents cdb files as (surprise!) mapping objects with a few |
19 | special features. In general, the module tries to mimic the functionality of | |
1a25d7bd | 20 | the normal cdb utilities. |
