This information describes the <code class="classname">DbException</code> class and how
|
||
it is used by the various Berkeley DB classes.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Most methods in the Berkeley DB classes return an <code class="literal">int</code>, but also throw
|
||
an exception. This allows for two different error behaviors. By default, the Berkeley DB
|
||
C++ API is configured to throw an exception whenever a serious error occurs. This
|
||
generally allows for cleaner logic for transaction processing because a try block can
|
||
surround a single transaction. Alternatively, Berkeley DB can be configured to not throw
|
||
exceptions, and instead have the individual function return an error code, by setting
|
||
the <a class="link" href="envcreate.html#env_DB_CXX_NO_EXCEPTIONS">DB_CXX_NO_EXCEPTIONS</a>
|
||
for the <a class="xref" href="dbcreate.html" title="Db">Db</a> and
|
||
<a class="xref" href="envcreate.html" title="DbEnv">DbEnv</a> constructors.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
A <code class="classname">DbException</code> object contains an informational string, an
|
||
<code class="literal">errno</code>, and a reference to the environment from which the exception
|
||
was thrown. The <code class="literal">errno</code> can be obtained by using the
|
||
<code class="methodname">DbException::get_errno()</code> method, and can be used, in standard
|
||
cases, to determine the type of the exception. The informational string can be obtained
|
||
by using the <code class="methodname">DbException::what()</code>. And, the environment can be
|
||
obtained using the <code class="methodname">DbException::get_env()</code> method.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
We expect in the future that this class will inherit from the standard class exception,
|
||
but certain language implementation bugs currently prevent this on some platforms.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Some methods may return non-zero values without issuing an exception. This occurs in
|
||
situations that are not normally considered an error, but when some informational status
|
||
is returned. For example, the <a class="xref" href="dbget.html" title="Db::get()">Db::get()</a> method returns
|
||
<a href="../../programmer_reference/program_errorret.html#program_errorret.DB_NOTFOUND" class="olink">DB_NOTFOUND</a>
|
||
when a requested key does not appear in the database.
