is_rmw

Function Details

bool is_rmw() const
 

Get DB_RMW setting.

Return true if the iterator's cursor has DB_RMW flag set, false otherwise. DB_RMW flag causes a write lock to be acquired when reading a key/data pair, so that the transaction won't block later when writing back the updated value in a read-modify-write operation cycle.
