If there has been any logging activity in the database environment
since the last checkpoint, the < code class = "methodname" > DB_ENV-> txn_checkpoint()< / code > method
flushes the underlying memory pool, writes a checkpoint record to the
log, and then flushes the log.
< / p >
< p >
The < code class = "methodname" > DB_ENV-> txn_checkpoint()< / code > method returns a non-zero error value on
failure and 0 on success.

The < code class = "methodname" > DB_ENV-> txn_checkpoint()< / code > method is the underlying method used by
the < a class = "link" href = "db_checkpoint.html" title = "db_checkpoint" > db_checkpoint< / a >
utility. See the < a class = "link" href = "db_checkpoint.html" title = "db_checkpoint" > db_checkpoint< / a > utility
source code for an example of using < code class = "methodname" > DB_ENV-> txn_checkpoint()< / code > in a
IEEE/ANSI Std 1003.1 (POSIX) environment.
