|

The <code class="methodname">DB->fd()</code> method provides access to a file descriptor
|
||
representative of the underlying database. A file descriptor
|
||
referring to the same file will be returned to all processes that call
|
||
<a class="xref" href="dbopen.html" title="DB->open()">DB->open()</a> with the same
|
||
<span class="bold"><strong>file</strong></span> parameter.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
This file descriptor may be safely used as a parameter to the
|
||
<span class="bold"><strong>fcntl</strong></span>(2) and <span class="bold"><strong>flock</strong></span>(2) locking functions.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The <code class="methodname">DB->fd()</code> method only supports a coarse-grained form of locking.
|
||
Applications should instead use the Berkeley DB lock manager where
|
||
possible.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The <code class="methodname">DB->fd()</code> <span>
|
||
<span>
|
||
method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
