release notes:
Woo hoo, "half"-way there! :-D
Let's hope we can reach 1.0 sometime this decade...
Also, hackers may want to check out the Git repo, new dir xp/,
for yet another way to push your multicore system to insanity.
README excerpt:
Guile-PG is a collection of modules for Guile allowing access to
the PostgreSQL RDBMS from Scheme programs.
The low-level module ‘(database postgres)’ provides an almost
one-to-one correspondence with the PostgreSQL "libpq" C library
interface. The other modules build on it to provide abstractions
and convenience procedures.
NEWS for 0.50 (2021-12-04):
- distribution now .tar.lz
If you have GNU tar, you can use "tar xf" and it will DTRT.
If not, you can use "lzip -dc TARBALL | tar xf -" to unpack it.
- lob details bifurcated for "modern" Guile
Guile 2.2 (and later, presumably) have ‘scm_c_make_port’ and in
fact a whole rewrite of the ports extension mechanism. Thus,
all previous Guile-PG releases failed to build w/ Guile 2.2.
Specifically, all the large object (lob) low-level details
clashed irreconcilably.
This release of Guile-PG now handles things by configure-time
detection and selection of a suitably matching implementation.
The file test/OK now includes an entry w/ a subheading of "other
Guile" to show the range of supported Guile versions. More to
the point, if you build w/ Guile 2.2 and encounter problems,
then please report it.
NB: We haven't dipped into the Guile 3.0 waters yet. Experience
reports from those more adventurous are welcome, in any case.
- bootstrap/maintenance tools
