README

A Berkeley DB style database implemented with a skip list instead of a b-tree. It's small, portable and supports ACID transactions (with true durability).

The license is Revised BSD.

Example:

#include "SkipDB.h"

int main(void) { Datum key; Datum value; int count;

// open

SkipDB *db = SkipDB_new();
SkipDB_setPath_(db, "test.skipdb");
SkipDB_open(db);

// write

SkipDB_beginTransaction(db);
key = Datum_FromCString_("testKey");
value = Datum_FromCString_("testValue");
SkipDB_at_put_(db, key, value);
SkipDB_commitTransaction(db);

// read

value = SkipDB_at_(db, key);

// count

count = SkipDB_count(db);

// remove

SkipDB_beginTransaction(db);
SkipDB_removeAt_(db, key);
SkipDB_commitTransaction(db);

// there's also a cursor API
// not shown in this example code

// close

SkipDB_close(db);

return 0;
