<p>
To enable transactions for your environment, you must initialize the
transactional subsystem. Note that doing this also initializes the
logging subsystem. In addition, you must initialize the memory pool
(in-memory cache). You must also initialize the locking subsystem.
<span>
For example:
</span>
</p>
<p>
Notice in the following example that you create your environment
handle using the <code class="function">db_env_create()</code> function before you open
the environment:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "db.h"
int
main(void)
{
int ret, ret_c;
u_int32_t env_flags;
DB_ENV *envp;
const char *db_home_dir = "/tmp/myEnvironment";
envp = NULL;
/* Open the environment */
ret = db_env_create(&envp, 0);
if (ret != 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "Error creating environment handle: %s\n",
db_strerror(ret));
return (EXIT_FAILURE);
}
env_flags = DB_CREATE | /* Create the environment if it does
* not already exist. */
DB_INIT_TXN | /* Initialize transactions */
DB_INIT_LOCK | /* Initialize locking. */
DB_INIT_LOG | /* Initialize logging */
DB_INIT_MPOOL; /* Initialize the in-memory cache. */
ret = envp->open(envp, db_home_dir, env_flags, 0);
if (ret != 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "Error opening environment: %s\n",
db_strerror(ret));
goto err;
}
err:
/* Close the environment */
if (envp != NULL) {
ret_c = envp->close(envp, 0);
if (ret_c != 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "environment close failed: %s\n",
db_strerror(ret_c));
ret = ret_c;
}
}
return (ret == 0 ? EXIT_SUCCESS : EXIT_FAILURE);
} </pre>
<p>
You then create and open your database(s) as you would for a non-transactional system.
<span>
The only difference is that you must pass the environment handle to
the
<span>
<code class="function">db_create()</code> function,
</span>
and you must open the database within a transaction.
Typically auto commit is used for this purpose. To do so, pass
<code class="literal">DB_AUTO_COMMIT</code> to the database open command.
It is recommended that you close all your databases before you close
your environment.
For example:
</span>
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "db.h"

<p>
Never close a database that has active transactions. Make sure
all transactions are resolved (either committed or aborted)
before closing the database.
