<p>The <a href="../api_reference/C/env.html" class="olink">DB_ENV</a> structure is now opaque for applications in the Berkeley DB
3.0 release. Accesses to any fields within that structure by the
application should be replaced with method calls. The following example
illustrates this using the historic errpfx structure field. In the Berkeley DB
2.X releases, applications set error prefixes using code similar to the
following:</p>
<pre class="programlisting">DB_ENV *dbenv;
dbenv-&gt;errpfx = "my prefix";</pre>
<p>in the Berkeley DB 3.X releases, this should be done using the
<a href="../api_reference/C/envset_errpfx.html" class="olink">DB_ENV-&gt;set_errpfx()</a> method, as follows:</p>
<pre class="programlisting">DB_ENV *dbenv;
dbenv-&gt;set_errpfx(dbenv, "my prefix");</pre>
<p>The following table lists the <a href="../api_reference/C/env.html" class="olink">DB_ENV</a> fields previously used by
applications and the methods that should now be used to set them.</p>

Setting both the second argument (the number of GB in the pool) and the
last argument (the number of memory pools to create) to 0 will result in
behavior that is backward-compatible with previous Berkeley DB releases.</p></td>

no longer be used by any application.</td>
