Hi -
I've posted Steven Pair's BerkeleyDB plugin .sar file to dropbox here:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4460862/BerkeleyDB.sar
I'd like to get it to compile (on linux...), and also to modify it to work with the LMDB (http://symas.com/mdb/). According to the LMDB docs it should be pretty straightforward to port something from BerkeleyDB.
From examining the .sar it looks like the plugin hasn't been edited/compiled since December 2002.
Is there a guide for bringing old plugins up to date? IF not what should I expect to have to change to get it working?
Thanks
Paul
D'u have the smalltalk source or just the generated C code? And I what VM build environment do you want to work?

I am assuming that this is "Berkeley DB Plugin" on SqueakMap, written by Stephen Pair and licensed SqueakL, and therefore OK to include in the VM.
The SAR file contains the platforms sources and some hints as to handle it in a makefile.
I expect that this plugin could be brought back to life with a bit of effort. It also looks like something that might best be maintained outside of VMMaker so that the interested parties can update it as they please.
How about if we put the Smalltalk part of the plugin into a new project on squeaksource.com? Paul DeBruicker, Stephen Pair, Eliot and I all have accounts on that server already, so it would be easy to put it there.
The Berkeley db library has a lot of history, and I don't know what the current runtimes would be on a modern unix/linux/osx platform. The http://www.sleepycat.com site redirects to Oracle now, which does not seem encouraging. Current licensing seems to be explained at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkeley_DB.

Hi David,
It is the same. I did ask Stephen Pair and he said it would be fine to port it to LMDB , also to make the resulting port MIT. LMDB is the database that backs the OpenLDAP project (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenLDAP), and is under the OpenLDAP license: (https://gitorious.org/mdb/mdb/source/3368d1f5e243225cba4d730fba19ff600798ebe...) which is considerably more permissive than what Oracle is offering with BerkeleyDB.
My thought was to make it compile & work with BerkeleyDB as an intermediate step in an effort to limit the moving parts I was learning about. Then after that port it to LMDB
Thanks for looking into it.

Hi David,
I made the project on SqueakSource. The repo is here:
MCHttpRepository location: 'http://www.squeaksource.com/BerkeleyDB' user: '' password: ''
When attempting to generate the plugin as an external plugin the error shown in the VMMaker window is:

Are these warnings/errors serious? Is the next step to get rid of them?
Thanks

Hi Paul,
Thanks for doing this. I don't have time to really check it out right now, but I did load your code from the new repository and I was able to generate the C source with no problem (see attached).
I'll follow up on this in a few days, but at first glance it looks fine.
FYI, I'm using VMMaker trunk (load update-dtl.16.mcm), then "VMMakerTool forUnix" to open the VMM tool, then drag the BerkeleyDbPlugin from "Plugins not built" over to the "External Plugins" pane, then Generate Entire.
For platforms source, I used the sources from the original SAR and put the header file in platforms/Cross/plugins/BerkeleyDbPlugin/ and the C file in platforms/unix/plugins/BerkeleyDbPlugin/. I don't know if that's right, but it works for generating the C code.

Hi David,
I followed your instructions and made some headway in getting the plugin compiled. The changes are on SquaeakSource. I think I have now hit some errors that will necessitate making changes to the sqBerkeleyDbPlugin.c file in the .sar.
Where should I save/share those changes?
I'm ambivalent and will put it on github if you are too.
I'm using 32 bit ubuntu 14.04. I think the current Big problem is that the plugin was written for BerkeleyDB version 4.???. I've been trying to compile it against version 6.1, because its the current stable installed by apt-get. Maybe the API has changed. I'll download and try some of the 4.x libraries to see.
The current set of errors are pasted below.
I've got about an hour a week I want to spend on this so there is no rush on my end for Progress.
Thanks for taking a look

Hi Dave,
I've made a repository here: https://github.com/pdebruic/BerkeleyDBPlugin and added you as a collaborator. I have not yet made any changes in the files from the .sar.
I did find that if I used version 4.1.25 then things compiled without the errors I posted yesterday and a VM was made. So I think we need to start with older versions of BerkeleyDB, which apt doesn't have. I did not yet try the other 4.x versions and I'm not sure which would be best to use.
The 4.x versions are available here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/database-technologies/berkeleydb/....
They include install directions and C API documentation accessible from the docs/index.html file once you've extracted the download. Once unzipped the install steps were:
cd build_unix ../dist/configure make sudo make install
Thanks for taking a look

Hi Paul,
Thanks for doing this. I don't have time to really check it out right now, but I did load your code from the new repository and I was able to generate the C source with no problem (see attached).
I'll follow up on this in a few days, but at first glance it looks fine.
FYI, I'm using VMMaker trunk (load update-dtl.16.mcm), then "VMMakerTool forUnix" to open the VMM tool, then drag the BerkeleyDbPlugin from "Plugins not built" over to the "External Plugins" pane, then Generate Entire.
For platforms source, I used the sources from the original SAR and put the header file in platforms/Cross/plugins/BerkeleyDbPlugin/ and the C file in platforms/unix/plugins/BerkeleyDbPlugin/. I don't know if that's right, but it works for generating the C code.

I expect that this plugin could be brought back to life with a bit of effort. It also looks like something that might best be maintained outside of VMMaker so that the interested parties can update it as they please.
How about if we put the Smalltalk part of the plugin into a new
project on
squeaksource.com? Paul DeBruicker, Stephen Pair, Eliot and I all have accounts on that server already, so it would be easy to put it there.
The Berkeley db library has a lot of history, and I don't know what

current runtimes would be on a modern unix/linux/osx platform. The http://www.sleepycat.com site redirects to Oracle now, which does not seem encouraging.

Hi Paul,
Thanks for the clear instructions. I installed the 4.1.25 BerkeleyDB from the Oracle site. That looks like the right place to start.
Are you working on a 32-bit Ubuntu system, or 64-bit? I'm working on a 64-bit platform, and I think I'm seeing a few issues to be sorted out (nothing serious, more or less what I'd expect on a plugin that has not be updated in a while):

I may not have time to really look at this for a few days, but I think if we can get the plugin working on the older BerkeleyDB version, then the updates should be straightforward from there.
Thanks also for setting up https://github.com/pdebruic/BerkeleyDBPlugin

Hi David,

Good, I think for now it's best if you work with the 32-bit platform, which can probably produce a working plugin. I'll carry on with my 64-bit setup, which which will let me pick off the pointer size issues. We can swap fixes as we go. I think I also see some issues related to assuming an image word size of 4 (it would be 8 for 64 bit images) but we can deal with that later.
I just did a commit to the BerkeleyDB repository (BerkeleyDB-dtl.4) that eliminates my remaining compile errors for the sqBerkeleyDatabase.c plugin generated source, although I still get a number of compiler warnings that will need to be sorted out. You probably will not notice a difference on 32-bits though.

I may not have time to really look at this for a few days, but I think if we can get the plugin working on the older BerkeleyDB version, then the updates should be straightforward from there.
Thanks also for setting up https://github.com/pdebruic/BerkeleyDBPlugin

Hi Dave,
I've made a repository here: https://github.com/pdebruic/BerkeleyDBPlugin and added you as a collaborator. I have not yet made any changes in the files from the .sar.
I did find that if I used version 4.1.25 then things compiled without the errors I posted yesterday and a VM was made. So I think we need to start with older versions of BerkeleyDB, which apt doesn't have. I did not yet try the other 4.x versions and I'm not sure which would be best to use.
The 4.x versions are available here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/database-technologies/berkeleydb/....
They include install directions and C API documentation accessible from the docs/index.html file once you've extracted the download. Once unzipped the install steps were:
cd build_unix ../dist/configure make sudo make install
Thanks for taking a look

Hi Paul,
I'm sure we'll want to put the source in Subversion at some point, but github might be a good way to get started. I am dtlewis290 on github.
I have not actually installed berkeley DB on my ubuntu PC yet. Should I just apt-get it from ubuntu, or is there a particular version that I should try to use?
Thanks!

Hi David,
I followed your instructions and made some headway in getting the plugin compiled. The changes are on SquaeakSource. I think I have now hit some errors that will necessitate making changes to the sqBerkeleyDbPlugin.c file in the .sar.
Where should I save/share those changes?
I'm ambivalent and will put it on github if you are too.
I'm using 32 bit ubuntu 14.04. I think the current Big problem is that the plugin was written for BerkeleyDB version 4.???. I've been trying to compile it against version 6.1, because its the current stable installed by apt-get. Maybe the API has changed. I'll download and try some of the 4.x libraries to see.
The current set of errors are pasted below.
I've got about an hour a week I want to spend on this so there is no rush on my end for Progress.
Thanks for taking a look

Hi Paul,
Thanks for doing this. I don't have time to really check it out right now, but I did load your code from the new repository and I was able to generate the C source with no problem (see attached).
I'll follow up on this in a few days, but at first glance it looks fine.
FYI, I'm using VMMaker trunk (load update-dtl.16.mcm), then "VMMakerTool forUnix" to open the VMM tool, then drag the BerkeleyDbPlugin from "Plugins not built" over to the "External Plugins" pane, then Generate Entire.
For platforms source, I used the sources from the original SAR and put the header file in platforms/Cross/plugins/BerkeleyDbPlugin/ and the C file in platforms/unix/plugins/BerkeleyDbPlugin/. I don't know if that's right, but it works for generating the C code.

Hi Eliot,
The SAR has the smalltalk source. I don't know which build environment. I'm usually on a Mac but also have Linux available. Utilmately I'd like it to run on both those platforms with a modern VM.
Thanks
Paul

D'u have the smalltalk source or just the generated C code? And I what VM build environment do you want to work?

Hi -
I've posted Steven Pair's BerkeleyDB plugin .sar file to dropbox here:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4460862/BerkeleyDB.sar
I'd like to get it to compile (on linux...), and also to modify it to work with the LMDB (http://symas.com/mdb/). According to the LMDB docs it should be pretty straightforward to port something from BerkeleyDB.
From examining the .sar it looks like the plugin hasn't been edited/compiled since December 2002.
Is there a guide for bringing old plugins up to date? IF not what should I expect to have to change to get it working?
Thanks
Paul
