[comp.databases] Looking for ndbm

dupuy@amsterdam.columbia.edu (Alexander Dupuy) (08/13/87)

I am looking for a simple collection of low level database routines,
in the spirit of ndbm(3).  The reason I can't just use dbm is that I
need to be able to do indexing on partial keys, so the hashing
scheme used by dbm won't work.  Something using B-trees or ISAM would
do the trick quite nicely.  I don't even need file based access (i.e.
it can all run in memory) and in fact a memory based implementation
might even be better (although database size would be limited).

Any leads or pointers would be greatly appreciated.
