Builtins for managing associative array parameters tied to GDBM databases.
!MOD!)
The tt(zsh/db/gdbm) module is used to create "tied" associative arrays
that interface to database files. If the GDBM interface is not available,
the builtins defined by this module will report an error. This module is
also intended as a prototype for creating additional database interfaces,
so the tt(ztie) builtin may move to a more generic module in the future.
The builtins in this module are:
startitem()
findex(ztie)
cindex(tied array, creating)
item(tt(ztie -d db/gdbm -f) var(filename) var(arrayname))(
Open the GDBM database identified by var(filename) and, if successful,
create the associative array var(arrayname) linked to the file. Note
that var(arrayname) must be unset at the time tt(ztie) is called, and
is always created as a global parameter (as if with `tt(typeset -g)').
)
findex(zuntie)
cindex(tied array, destroying)
item(tt(zuntie) var(arrayname) ...)(
Close the GDBM database associated with each var(arrayname) and then
unset the variable.
)
enditem()
