      cxx
       (on by default)

      Enable the use of the C++ library db_cxx. On some platforms, BerkeleyDB won't load into ghci if this flag is enabled. This flag is required for if you want to use the BerkeleyDBXML package. It is recommended to disable this flag if you are not using BerkeleyDBXML.

Berkeley DB is a fast, scalable, fully transactional database that runs on a local file system, and functions as a dictionary of arbitrary-sized binary blobs. (It is NOT an SQL-based database.) This package provides a thin Haskell binding for Berkeley DB.

This is a work in progress: The coverage of the Berkeley DB API is not yet complete. Tested with Berkeley DB version 4.6.

CXX flag (enabled by default): On some platforms, BerkeleyDB won't load into ghci if the CXX flag is enabled. The CXX flag is required if you want to use the BerkeleyDBXML package. You are recommended to disable this flag if you are not using BerkeleyDBXML. To disable it, configure with --flags=-CXX.
