<p>With default flags, the C++ <a href="../api_reference/CXX/env.html" class="olink">DbEnv</a> and <a href="../api_reference/CXX/db.html" class="olink">Db</a> classes
|
||
can throw exceptions from their constructors. For example, this can
|
||
happen if invalid parameters are passed in or the underlying C
|
||
structures could not be created. If the objects are created in an
|
||
environment that is not configured for exceptions (that is, the
|
||
<a href="../api_reference/CXX/envcreate.html#env_DB_CXX_NO_EXCEPTIONS" class="olink">DB_CXX_NO_EXCEPTIONS</a> flag is specified), errors from the
|
||
constructor will be returned when the handle's open method is called.</p>
|
||
<p>In addition, the behavior of the <a href="../api_reference/CXX/env.html" class="olink">DbEnv</a> and <a href="../api_reference/CXX/db.html" class="olink">Db</a>
|
||
destructors has changed to simplify exception handling in applications.
|
||
The destructors will now close the handle if the handle's close method
|
||
was not called prior to the object being destroyed. The return value
|
||
of the call is discarded, and no exceptions will be thrown.
|
||
Applications should call the close method in normal situations so any
|
||
errors while closing can be handled by the application.</p>
|
||
<p>This change allows applications to be structured as follows:</p>
|
||
<pre class="programlisting">try {
|
||
DbEnv env(0);
|
||
env.open(/* ... */);
|
||
Db db(&env, 0);
|
||
db.open(/* ... */);
|
||
/* ... */
|
||
db.close(0);
|
||
env.close(0);
|
||
} catch (DbException &dbe) {
|
||
// Handle the exception, the handles have already been closed.
|
||
}</pre>
