3.2.13, December 06, 2006
Berkeley DB Java Edition (JE) is a 100% pure Java implementation of Berkeley DB. It implements a transactional store model based on a B+Tree access method.
The documentation set for JE includes:
This is release 3.2.13 of Berkeley DB Java Edition, and the first release in the JE 3.2 line. The changes introduced in 3.2.13 mainly encompass bug fixes and efficiency improvements, but also include a forward-compatible file format change.
Key changes since version JE 3.1.0
are summarized below; the complete list of changes can also be found in the change log page.
Note: If you are using Mac OS X, please be aware of the following issue. Java version 1.4.2 on Mac OS X reports the wrong value for Runtime.maxMemory. JE calculates the default cache size as a percentage of maxMemory. Because of this, for Java 1.4.2 on Mac OS X only, JE will assume that the Java maxMemory value is 64 MB. With the default je.maxMemoryPercent configuration parameter (60%) the default JE cache size will be approximately 38 MB. This default is fixed -- it does not change if the Java memory size is different than 64 MB. To specify a different JE cache size, you must explicitly set the je.maxMemory configuration property. The je.maxMemory property can be specified in the je.properties file or by calling EnvironmentConfig.setCacheSize.
JE 3.2.13 has moved to on-disk file format 5.
The change is forward compatible in that JE files created with release
3.1.0 and earlier can be read when opened with JE 3.2.13. The change
is not backward compatible in that files created with JE 3.2.13
cannot be read by earlier releases. Note that if an existing environment is
opened read/write, a new log file is written by JE 3.2.13 and the
environment can no longer be read by earlier releases.[#15195]
