Hello.

MDXB is a fork of LMDB which provides some very good additional goodies.
Read https://github.com/erthink/libmdbx for more details.

It would be great if LMDB Java could be expanded to support that fork as well.
Alternatively, an MDBX Java library could potentially be initiated to support it in parallel.

There is indeed a binding library already available, but it's not as maintained as this one. :)

   My view is that such a thing should be a separate project. While mdbx my be similar to lmdb now, it is a fork so may well diverge. It would add unnecessary complexity to LJ for people that are only interested in lmdb as a back-end.

   Yep, indeed I agree it should go in a separate project/repo.
   The idea here was more about evaluating if the current bindings, as well as the additions (e.g.: key ranges), could be easily reused.

   It looks like libmdbx is becoming mithrildb and going closed source.

   @cdprete are you happy to close this issue?
