the tests (the Unix ones at least ;) to use the Berkeley Full storage.

module function cleanup() which was added to FileStorage and
BerkeleyBase.

UnixTests.getStorage(): Return a ZConfig string instead of a tuple of
a class name and an argument list.

BDBTests: Simple extension to UnixTests to test using Berkeley
storages with ZEO.

WindowsTest: Derive from UnixTests and remove getStorageInfo() and
delStorage().

Add BDBTests if we can import Full.

Tim and I will check Windows compatibility soon.

i.e. reason first, then oid.  This is because there's always a reason
but sometimes there isn't an oid (so we can default arg the oid).

cleanup(): Add both a method to FileStorage and a module global
function to clean up all the files that a FileStorage creates.
Sometimes it's handy to do a cleanup if you have the instance, other
times you only have the Data.fs file name.

PersistentMapping sitting off the root object.  The zrs heartbeat
object will go in this same location (under a different name of
course).

FileStorage._txn_undo()

instead now.

The _txn_find() must not stop at the pack boundary when it is called
by restore().  It was originally written for _txn_undo() which isn't
supposed to undo to a transaction across a pack.  But it should be
legal to restore() a transaction with a reference to a data record in
a transaction that was packed.

Fix by adding stop_at_pack flag to _txn_find() and add tests of this
behavior for FileStorage.

checkTransactionExtensionFromIterator(): New test which BDBFullStorage
was failing because it wasn't unpickling the transaction extension
data.

Oops.  The code for BTrees-based indexing was done on a branch, which
was later merged into another branch, which was later merged to the
trunk.  Somewhere along the way the change that actually enabled the
new index was lost.

Almost entirely concerned with adding ZPL blocks.

The timeout is necessary because in some cases a non-blocking connect
while neither succeed nor fail.  It is unacceptable to simply get
stuck forever in this code, because it is run at least once inside the
ClientStorage constructor.

Set the first timeout to a fairly low number -- 5 seconds -- so that a
ClientStorage(wait=0) call does not take a inordinate length of time.
Then set the default to a longer number -- 75 seconds, which is
typical timeout for a blocking connect() call.

This change fixes the hang in testZEOStorage from testStorageConfig.

XXX Need to get Guido to review the changes.

really not reusable, so should be considered an implementation
detail.

- Define exceptions in the "Exceptions" module.
- Expose all the exceptions in the ZConfig package directly.

useful now that %define and substitution is built into the basic handling
of the configuration files.

Further documentation is needed.
