DB_MPOOLFILE-> set_priority(DB_MPOOLFILE *mpf, DB_CACHE_PRIORITY priority); < / pre >
< p >
Set the cache priority for pages referenced by the
< a class = "link" href = "memp.html" title = "Chapter > DB_MPOOLFILE< / a > handle.
< / p >
< p >
The priority of a page biases the replacement algorithm to be more or
less likely to discard a page when space is needed in the cache.
The bias is temporary, and pages will eventually be discarded if they
are not referenced again. The < code class = "methodname" > DB_MPOOLFILE-> set_priority()< / code > method is
only advisory, and does not guarantee pages will be treated in a
specific way.
< / p >
< p >
To set the priority for the pages belonging to a particular database,
call the < code class = "methodname" > DB_MPOOLFILE-> set_priority()< / code > method using the
< a class = "link" href = "memp.html" title = "Chapter > DB_MPOOLFILE< / a > handle
returned by the < a class = "xref" href = "dbget_mpf.html" title = "DB->get_mpf()" > DB-> get_mpf()< / a > method.
< / p >
< p >
The < code class = "methodname" > DB_MPOOLFILE-> set_priority()< / code > method configures a file in the
cache, not only operations performed using the specified
< a class = "link" href = "memp.html" title = "Chapter > DB_MPOOLFILE< / a > handle.
< / p >
< p >
The < code class = "methodname" > DB_MPOOLFILE-> set_priority()< / code > method may be called at any time
during the life of the application.
< / p >

The < code class = "methodname" > DB_MPOOLFILE-> set_priority()< / code > < span >

method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
