Changes to NuMongoDB

[diederikh]

Hi Tim,

I have made some changes to in my fork of NuMongoDB as I am using NuMongoDB for DiskLibrary 2 (still in development). I was previously using the C++ driver.

Let me know what you think...

Thanks,

Hi Diederik, I'm glad that NuMongoDB was useful to you. Thanks for the additions! I have not used gridfs yet but think this is good to include. I want to look over your changes a bit more to understand them, but I expect that I'll pull these with no problem.

A question for you: I have an uncommitted change that automatically adds _created and _updated timestamps to documents that are inserted or updated with NuMongoDB. Would this cause problems for you?

Hi,

Well, I am storing millions of documents in MongoDB for my app (it's a disk cataloging application). So adding extra fields will make a big difference in DB size. If you can make it optional (property on NuMongoDB class or so) that would be great.

About reviewing the code: I did made some changes to get NuMongoDB to work under garbage collection. Especially the NuBSON bson_for_object: was giving me trouble as it creates an NuBSON object and then in the same scope GC will destroy the object and thus releasing the bsonvalue (while is will be used later). You may want to look at that more closely to see if a more elegant solution can be found.

Thanks,

Diederik
