<p>
Set the delimiting byte used to mark the end of a record in the
backing source file for the Recno access method.
</p>
<p>
This byte is used for variable length records if the
<span class="bold"><strong>re_source</strong></span> file is specified using the
<a class="xref" href="dbset_re_source.html" title="DB-&gt;set_re_source()">DB-&gt;set_re_source()</a>
method. If the <span class="bold"><strong>re_source</strong></span> file is
specified and no delimiting byte was specified, &lt;newline&gt;
characters (that is, ASCII 0x0a) are interpreted as end-of-record markers.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB-&gt;set_re_delim()</code> method configures a database, not only
operations performed using the specified
<a class="link" href="db.html" title="Chapter 2.  The DB Handle">DB</a> handle.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB-&gt;set_re_delim()</code> method may not be called after the
<a class="xref" href="dbopen.html" title="DB-&gt;open()">DB-&gt;open()</a> method is called. If
the database already exists when
<a class="xref" href="dbopen.html" title="DB-&gt;open()">DB-&gt;open()</a> is called, the
information specified to <code class="methodname">DB-&gt;set_re_delim()</code> will be ignored.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB-&gt;set_re_delim()</code> <span>
<span>
method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
