DB_ENV-&gt;memp_register(DB_ENV *env, int ftype,
    int (*pgin_fcn)(DB_ENV *env, db_pgno_t pgno, void *pgaddr, 
    DBT *pgcookie), int (*pgout_fcn)(DB_ENV *env, db_pgno_t pgno, 
    void *pgaddr, DBT *pgcookie));  </pre>
      <p>
         The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV-&gt;memp_register()</code> method registers page-in and page-out
         functions for files of type <span class="bold"><strong>ftype</strong></span> in the cache.
    </p>
      <p>
         If the <span class="bold"><strong>pgin_fcn</strong></span> function is non-NULL,
         it is called each time a page is read into the cache from a file
         of type <span class="bold"><strong>ftype</strong></span>, or a page is created
         for a file of type <span class="bold"><strong>ftype</strong></span> (see the
         DB_MPOOL_CREATE flag for the 
         <a class="xref" href="mempfget.html" title="DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;get()">DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;get()</a>  method).
    </p>
      <p>
         If the <span class="bold"><strong>pgout_fcn</strong></span> function is
         non-NULL, it is called each time a page is written to a file of type
         <span class="bold"><strong>ftype</strong></span>.
    </p>
      <p>
         The purpose of the <code class="methodname">DB_ENV-&gt;memp_register()</code> function is to support
         processing when pages are entered into, or flushed from, the cache.  For example, this
         functionality might be used to do byte-endian conversion as pages are read from, or written
         to, the underlying file.
    </p>
      <p>
         A file type must be specified to make it possible for unrelated
         threads or processes that are sharing a cache, to evict each other's
         pages from the cache.  During initialization, applications should call
         <code class="methodname">DB_ENV-&gt;memp_register()</code> for each type of file requiring input or
         output processing that will be sharing the underlying cache.  (No
         registry is necessary for the standard Berkeley DB access method types
         because <a class="xref" href="dbopen.html" title="DB-&gt;open()">DB-&gt;open()</a> 
         registers them separately.)
    </p>
      <p>
         If a thread or process does not call <code class="methodname">DB_ENV-&gt;memp_register()</code> for a
         file type, it is impossible for it to evict pages for any file
         requiring input or output processing from the cache.  For this reason,
         <code class="methodname">DB_ENV-&gt;memp_register()</code> should always be called by each application
         sharing a cache for each type of file included in the cache, regardless
         of whether or not the application itself uses files of that type.
    </p>
      <p>
         The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV-&gt;memp_register()</code> <span>
            <span>
                  method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
