10 Berkeley DB Notes

Please note: library(bdb) has been deprecated. See library(lmdb) for a replacement with similar feature set.

library(bdb) is built on top of Berkeley DB. It is an optional component of SICStus and nothing, except library(bdb), will be affected if Berkeley DB is not installed on the machine. You can safely ignore this section if you do not intend to use library(bdb).

Berkeley DB can be downloaded from:

https://www.oracle.com/database/berkeley-db/

library(bdb) is built using a particular version of Berkeley DB but it is possible to recompile it to work with other versions as well. The version differs between platform, see https://sicstus.sics.se/ for details.
