        Welcome to the Berkeley DB (DB) Collections API.  This document
        provides a tutorial that introduces the collections API.
        The goal of this document is to provide you with an efficient mechanism
        with which you can quickly become efficient with this API. As such, this document is
        intended for Java developers and senior software architects who are
        looking for transactionally-protected backing of their Java collections.
        No prior experience with Sleepycat technologies is expected or required.
     </p>

        The following typographical conventions are used within in this manual:
    </p>
        <p>
        Class names are represented in <tt class="classname">monospaced font</tt>, as are <tt class="methodname">method
        names</tt>. For example: "The <tt class="methodname">Environment.openDatabase()</tt> method
		returns a <tt class="classname">Database</tt> class object."
    </p>
        <p>
        Variable or non-literal text is presented in <span class="emphasis"><em>italics</em></span>. For example: "Go to your
         <span class="emphasis"><em>DB_INSTALLATION_HOME</em></span> directory."
    </p>
        <p>
        Program examples are displayed in a monospaced font on a shaded background. For example:
    </p>
        <pre class="programlisting">import com.sleepycat.db.Environment;
import com.sleepycat.db.EnvironmentConfig;
import java.io.File;

...

// Open the environment. Allow it to be created if it does not already exist.
Environment myDbEnvironment;</pre>
        <p>
        In situations in this book, programming examples are updated from one chapter to the next in this book. When
        this occurs, the new code is presented in <b class="userinput"><tt>monospaced bold</tt></b> font. For example:
    </p>
        <pre class="programlisting">import com.sleepycat.db.Environment;
import com.sleepycat.db.EnvironmentConfig;
import java.io.File;

...

// Open the environment. Allow it to be created if it does not already exist.
<b class="userinput"><tt>Environment myDbEnv;
EnvironmentConfig envConfig = new EnvironmentConfig();
envConfig.setAllowCreate(true);
myDbEnv = new Environment(new File("/export/dbEnv"), envConfig);</tt></b> </pre>
