question about 3.12 Storable feature
****** message to minivend-users from Larry Leszczynski <larryl@furph.com> ******
Hi Mike -
Regarding new 3.12 features:
> * Added a Storable interface selectable at software
> configuration time. If Storable is installed, and the
> file _db_storable is present in the MiniVend software root,
> (or the environment variable MINIVEND_STORABLE_DB is true)
> then Storable will be used not only for sessions but for
> all GDBM and DB_File storage. THIS BREAKS EXISTING CATALOGS.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Can you clarify this? Is it the fact that .gdbm files have already been
created that will make things break? For instance, if I stop my current
3.11 MiniVend processes, delete all the session and database .gdbm files
so they get recreated from scratch later when I start 3.12, will this
work?
Btw, based on the new features list this looks like a great release!
