You can use transactions with your secondary indices so long as you
|
||
|
||
<span>
|
||
open the secondary index so that it supports transactions (that is,
|
||
you wrap the database open in a transaction, or use auto commit,
|
||
in the same way as when you open a primary transactional database).
|
||
</span>
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
<span>
|
||
In addition, you must make sure that when you associate the
|
||
secondary index with the primary database, the association is
|
||
performed using a transaction. The easiest thing to do here is
|
||
to simply specify <code class="literal">DB_AUTO_COMMIT</code> when you
|
||
perform the association.
|
||
</span>
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
All other aspects of using secondary indices with transactions are
|
||
identical to using secondary indices without transactions. In
|
||
addition, transaction-protecting
|
||
<span>
|
||
cursors opened against secondary indices is performed in
|
||
exactly the same way as when you use transactional cursors
|
||
against a primary database.
|
||
</span>
|
||
|
||
See <a class="xref" href="txncursor.html" title="Transactional Cursors">Transactional Cursors</a> for details.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Note that when you use transactions to protect your database writes, your secondary indices are protected from
|
||
corruption because updates to the primary and the secondaries are performed in a single atomic transaction.

|
||
</p>
|
||
<pre class="programlisting">#include <db.h>

|
||
|
||
DB_ENV *envp; /* Environment pointer */

DB *dbp, *sdbp; /* Primary and secondary DB handles */
|
||
u_int32_t flags; /* Primary database open flags */
|
||
int ret; /* Function return value */
|
||
|
||
/* Environment and primary database opens omitted */
|
||
|
||
/* Secondary */
|
||
ret = db_create(&sdbp, envp, 0);
|
||
if (ret != 0) {
|
||
/* Error handling goes here */
|
||
}
|
||
/* open the secondary database */
|
||
ret = sdbp->open(sdbp, /* DB structure pointer */
|
||
NULL, /* Transaction pointer */
|
||
"my_secdb.db", /* On-disk file that holds the
|
||
* database. */
|
||
NULL, /* Optional logical database name */
|
||
DB_BTREE, /* Database access method */
|
||
DB_AUTO_COMMIT, /* Open flags */
|
||
0); /* File mode (using defaults) */
|
||
if (ret != 0) {
|
||
/* Error handling goes here */
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
/* Now associate the secondary to the primary */
|
||
dbp->associate(dbp, /* Primary database */
|
||
NULL, /* TXN id */
|
||
sdbp, /* Secondary database */
|
||
get_sales_rep, /* Callback used for key creation. This
|
||
* is described in the Getting Started

|

DB_AUTO_COMMIT);/* Flags */</pre>
