%%    4*256  First segment
%%  ----------------------------- This is BASE.

%%    ... more objects and segments ...

%%    ???    Free lists
%%  -----------------------------
%%    4      File size, in bytes. 

%%  The first slot (0) in the segment array always points to the
%%  pre-allocated first segment.
%%  Before we can find an object we must find the slot where the
%%  object resides. Each slot is a (possibly empty) list (or chain) of
%%  objects that hash to the same slot. If the value stored in the
%%  slot is zero, the slot chain is empty. If the slot value is
%%  non-zero, the value points to a position in the file where the
%%  chain starts. Each object in a chain has the following layout:
%%
%%   bytes  decsription
%%  --------------------
%%    4     Pointer to the next object of the chain.
%%    4     Size of the object in bytes (Sz).
%%    4     Status  (FREE or ACTIVE)
%%    Sz    Binary representing the object
%%
%%  The status field is used while repairing a file (but not next or size).

%% The version of a dets file is indicated by the ClosedProperly
%% field. Version 6 was used in the R1A release, and version 7 in the
%% R1B release up to and including the R3B01 release. Both version 6
%% and version 7 indicate properly closed files by the value
%% CLOSED_PROPERLY.
%%
%% The current version, 8, has three sub-versions:
%%
%% - 8(a), indicated by the value CLOSED_PROPERLY (same as in versions 6 
%%         and 7), introduced in R3B02;
%% - 8(b), indicated by the value CLOSED_PROPERLY2(_NEED_COMPACTING),
%%         introduced in R5A and used up to and including R6A;
%% - 8(c), indicated by the value CLOSED_PROPERLY_NEW_HASH(_NEED_COMPACTING),
%%         in use since R6B.
%%
%% The difference between the 8(a) and the 8(b) versions is the format
%% used for free lists saved on dets files.
%% The 8(c) version uses a different hashing algorithm, erlang:phash
%% (former versions use erlang:hash).
%% Version 8(b) files are only converted to version 8(c) if repair is
%% done, so we need compatability with 8(b) for a _long_ time.
%%
%% There are known bugs due to the fact that keys and objects are
%% sometimes compared (==) and sometimes matched (=:=). The version
%% used by default (9, see dets_v9.erl) does not have this problem.
