ODB - an Object Database Front-end for Python
ODB is a front end to three different data storage engines. One of them is
BDB (Berkeley DB), the other two are memory resident databases like BDB only
written entirely in Python (and included with this package - BDB and bsddb3 are
separate installs).
The interface is very BDB-ish, only a lot cleaner. ODB tries to hide a lot
of the grisly guts of the database interactions from the user.

-
Fixed several cases where a b-tree wasn't demand loading a node before
performing some action on it.
-
Differentiated between a key of None and an empty key (""), allowing empty
keys to be used.
-
Fixed the use of the key's reference count (it wasn't getting incremented
when the key was reused)
-
When replacing a node, the original node wasn't getting marked deleted.
Fixed this.
-
The full back-end wasn't building the dictionary of all of the tables during
initialization, causing exceptions while processing the transaction log if the
last log didn't also create the table. Fixed this.
-
Added numerous test cases to exercise all of these fixes, including an
"update" action in the test of 1000 random actions.
