Recent releases
- 05 Apr 2005 06:50
Changes: A critical bug that manifested itself after creating release 3.1b was fixed. If you downloaded the previous version, you should replace it with this version.
- 05 Apr 2005 06:50
Changes: A database handling bug has been fixed. It prevented the database from being updated under certain conditions.
- 15 Jul 2004 07:06
Changes: Two issues has been fixed. Firstly, an occasional bug that where the system refuses to update the database even when inconsistency is detected was fixed. The Makefile was also updated to avoid overwriting eics.conf if such a file already exists.
- 20 Jun 2004 18:36
Changes: This is a complete rewrite. The new system features improved checking code, faster lookup time from internal structures, regular expression support, better coupling with OpenSSL, and faster overall performance.

Changes: This version features minor fixes, removes pcre.h, which was forgotten, and fixes handling of symbolic links to not generate a warning from wrong filename for inodes.

CDB mmap() all data into memory, so it's fast
enough.
This is very efficient, 'cause it is a Constant
(Read-only or Write-only).
It also uses hashtable to made access faster.
Size of database is small, cause it have
read-only/write-only design.

Thank you for your comment. The reason I use my own database is that it allows me to store the data as compact as possible and also allows me to control better what is stored. I'm sure the CDB system is fast and everything, but I doubt it comes any faster since I preload everything into memory before starting to process. The in-memory data is stored in more or less efficient hashtable allowing near O(1) acccess times.
Interesting project.
Hi! Interesting work. Good idea to use openssl
for digests.
As I understand you use own database format,
to store file data (checksums,stat
information,etc.).
It may be interesting for you:

osec - it's mine integrity checker, that uses CDB
for database. CDB works faster then others.
