## v0.8.2 2020-07-06
2020-07-07 05:38:27 +08:00
- Added support multi-opening the same DB in a process with SysV locking (BSD).
- Fixed warnings & minors for LCC compiler (E2K).
- Enabled to simultaneously open the same database from processes with and without the `MDBX_WRITEMAP` option.
- Added key-to-value, `mdbx_get_keycmp()` and `mdbx_get_datacmp()` functions (helpful to avoid using custom comparators).
- Added `ENABLE_UBSAN` CMake option to enabling the UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer from GCC/CLANG.
- Workaround for [CLANG bug ](https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43275 ).
- Returning `MDBX_CORRUPTED` in case all meta-pages are weak and no other error.
- Refined mode bits while auto-creating LCK-file.
- Avoids unnecessary database file re-mapping in case geometry changed by another process(es).
From the user's point of view, the `MDBX_UNABLE_EXTEND_MAPSIZE` error will now be returned less frequently and only when using the DB in the current process really requires it to be reopened.
- Remapping on-the-fly and of the database file was implemented.
Now remapping with a change of address is performed automatically if there are no dependent readers in the current process.
