||
<p>Database opens were changed in the Berkeley DB 3.0 release in a similar way to
|
||
environment opens.</p>
|
||
<p>To upgrade your application, first find each place your application opens
|
||
a database, that is, calls the db_open function. Each of these calls
|
||
should be replaced with calls to <a href="../api_reference/C/dbcreate.html" class="olink">db_create()</a> and <a href="../api_reference/C/dbopen.html" class="olink">DB->open()</a>.</p>
|
||
<p>Here's an example creating a Berkeley DB database using the 2.X interface:</p>
|
||
<pre class="programlisting">DB *dbp;
|
||
DB_ENV *dbenv;
|
||
int ret;
|
||
|
||
if ((ret = db_open(DATABASE,
|
||
DB_BTREE, DB_CREATE, 0664, dbenv, NULL, &dbp)) != 0)
|
||
return (ret);</pre>
|
||
<p>In the Berkeley DB 3.0 release, this code would be written as:</p>
|
||
<pre class="programlisting">DB *dbp;
|
||
DB_ENV *dbenv;
|
||
int ret;
|
||
|
||
if ((ret = db_create(&dbp, dbenv, 0)) != 0)
|
||
return (ret);
|
||
|
||
if ((ret = dbp->open(dbp,
|
||
DATABASE, NULL, DB_BTREE, DB_CREATE, 0664)) != 0) {
|
||
(void)dbp->close(dbp, 0);
|
||
return (ret);
|
||
}</pre>
|
||
<p>As you can see, the arguments to db_open and to <a href="../api_reference/C/dbopen.html" class="olink">DB->open()</a> are
|
||
largely the same. There is some re-organization, and note that the
|
||
enclosing <a href="../api_reference/C/env.html" class="olink">DB_ENV</a> structure is specified when the <a href="../api_reference/C/db.html" class="olink">DB</a> object
|
||
is created using the <a href="../api_reference/C/dbcreate.html" class="olink">db_create()</a> function. There is one
|
||
additional argument to <a href="../api_reference/C/dbopen.html" class="olink">DB->open()</a>, argument #3. For backward
|
||
compatibility with the 2.X Berkeley DB releases, simply set that argument to
|
||
NULL.</p>
|
||
<p>There are two additional issues with the db_open call.</p>
|
||
<p>First, it was possible in the 2.X releases for an application to provide
|
||
an environment that did not contain a shared memory buffer pool as the
|
||
database environment, and Berkeley DB would create a private one automatically.
|
||
This functionality is no longer available, applications must specify the
|
||
<a href="../api_reference/C/envopen.html#envopen_DB_INIT_MPOOL" class="olink">DB_INIT_MPOOL</a> flag if databases are going to be opened in the
|
||
environment.</p>
|
||
<p>The final issue with upgrading the db_open call is that the DB_INFO
|
||
structure is no longer used, having been replaced by individual methods
|
||
on the <a href="../api_reference/C/db.html" class="olink">DB</a> handle. That change is discussed in detail later in
|
||
this chapter.</p>
