What's New

• Added "AutoRebuild" option in Connection String

In this version, the Rebuild command has been completely redesigned to be able to recover a full or partial database in case of data corruption. When detecting a structural error (known as the ENSURE exception) the data file will be modified to indicate that this file may be corrupt. When reopening the database, a rebuild process can be performed recovering as much data as possible. Use the "auto-rebuild=true" option in the connection string to activate this functionality. Possible errors found during the rebuild process will be stored in a new collection called "_rebuild_errors". A backup of the original file is created with the "-backup" suffix

ENSURE in Release mode

• This new 5.0.10 contains an adicional test layer called ENSURE used in all storage/cache layer. Until now, this tests was executed only in DEBUG mode but now we add into RELEASE mode too. If any ENSURE are violated a system exception will be throwed (prefix message "LiteDB ENSURE:"). This will better for detect and prevent data corruption database and much better diagnostics and bugfixes. Complex tests (like check if a byffer is empty) still run in DEBUG mode only to avoid performance down.

Changes

• The LiteDatabase ctor that takes a Stream for its data storage now takes another Stream as log storage. LiteDB can now be used with custom storage solutions (as long as it implements Stream).
• Custom serializers and deserializers can now be used even with basic BSON types. This is useful if you don't want to lose precision when storing DateTime.
