It builds on the famous `libmemcached`__ C client from TangentOrg__, notable for
|
2009-12-30 13:26:27 +00:00
|
|
|
its speed and flexibility.

`libmemcached` must be installed separately, and be available to the compiler
|
|
|
|
|
and linker.

Comparison to other libraries

|
|

=============================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Why use `pylibmc`? Because it's fast.

New in version 0.9
|
|
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Added a ``get_stats`` method, which behaves exactly like
|
|
|
|
|
`python-memcached`'s equivalent.
|
2009-11-05 16:01:30 +00:00
|
|
|
- Gives the empty string for empty memcached values like `python-memcached`
|
|
|
|
|
does.
|
2009-11-05 18:54:19 +00:00
|
|
|
- Added exceptions for most `libmemcached` return codes.
|
2009-11-25 11:02:20 +00:00
|
|
|
- Fixed an issue with ``Client.behaviors.update``.

New in version 0.8
|
|
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Pooling helpers are now available. See ``pooling.rst`` in the distribution.
|
2009-09-21 15:22:50 +00:00
|
|
|
- The binary protocol is now properly exposed, simply pass ``binary=True`` to
|
|
|
|
|
the constructor and there you go.
|
2009-09-21 13:37:35 +00:00
|
|
|
- Call signatures now match `libmemcached` 0.32, but should work with older
|
|
|
|
|
versions. Remember to run the tests!
|
|
|
|

|
New in version 0.7
|
|
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Restructured some of the code, which should yield better performance (if not
|
|
|
|
|
for that, it reads better.)
|
|
|
|
|
- Fixed some memory leaks.
|
|
|
|
|
- Integrated changes from `amix.dk`, which should make pylibmc work under
|
|
|
|
|
Snow Leopard.
|
2009-09-07 00:59:25 +00:00
|
|
|
- Add support for the boolean datatype.
|
2009-09-07 18:59:17 +00:00
|
|
|
- Improved test-runner -- now tests ``build/lib.*/_pylibmc.so`` if available,
|
|
|
|
|
and reports some version information.
|
2009-09-07 20:00:08 +00:00
|
|
|
- Support for x86_64 should now work completely.
|
2009-09-19 18:02:54 +00:00
|
|
|
- Builds with Python 2.4, tests run fine, but not officially supported.
|
|
|
|
|
- Fixed critical bugs in behavior manipulation.

|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
2009-07-31 21:01:28 +00:00
|
|
|
- Added compatibility with `libmemcached` 0.26, WRT error return codes.
|
|
|
|
|
- Added `flush_all` and `disconnect_all` methods.
|
|
|
|
|
- Now using the latest pickling protocol.

------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
2009-07-31 21:01:28 +00:00
|
|
|
- Fixed lots of memory leaks, and added support for `libmemcached` 0.23.
|
2009-07-31 21:14:59 +00:00
|
|
|
- Also made the code tighter in terms of compiler pedantics.
|

New in version 0.4

|
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
2009-07-31 21:01:28 +00:00
|
|
|
- Renamed the C module to `_pylibmc`, and added lots of `libmemcached` constants
|
|
|
|
|
to it, as well as implemented behaviors.
