Description:

GNU dbm database routines (development files)

GNU dbm ('gdbm') is a library of database functions that use extendible hashing and works similarly to the standard UNIX 'dbm' functions. . The basic use of 'gdbm' is to store key/data pairs in a data file, thus providing a persistent version of the 'dictionary' Abstract Data Type ('hash' to perl programmers). . Note, that to build old programs, that use legacy 'dbm' interface, you have to install libgdbm-compat-dev binary package.
