The <code class="methodname">Db::associate_foreign()</code> function is used to declare one database a
|
|||
|
foreign constraint for a secondary database. The
|
|||
|
<a class="link" href="db.html" title="Chapter 2. The Db Handle">Db</a> handle that you call the
|
|||
|
<code class="methodname">associate_foreign()</code> method from is the foreign
|
|||
|
database.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
After a foreign database has been "associated" with a secondary
|
|||
|
database, all keys inserted into the secondary must exist in the
|
|||
|
foreign database. Attempting to add a record with a foreign key
|
|||
|
that does not exist in the foreign database will cause the put
|
|||
|
method to fail and return <code class="literal">DB_FOREIGN_CONFLICT</code>.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
Deletions in the foreign database affect the secondary in a manner
|
|||
|
defined by the flags parameter. See
|
|||
|
<a href="../../programmer_reference/am_foreign.html" class="olink">Foreign Indices</a>
|
|||
|
in the <em class="citetitle">Berkeley DB Programmer's Reference Guide</em> for more information.
