<h3 align=center>Release 3.2: DB_ENV->set_flags</h3>
<p>A new method has been added to the Berkeley DB environment handle,
<a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html">DB_ENV->set_flags</a>. This method currently takes three flags:
<a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html#DB_CDB_ALLDB">DB_CDB_ALLDB</a>, <a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html#DB_NOMMAP">DB_NOMMAP</a> and <a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html#DB_TXN_NOSYNC">DB_TXN_NOSYNC</a>. The
first of these flags, <a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html#DB_CDB_ALLDB">DB_CDB_ALLDB</a>, provides new functionality,
allowing Berkeley DB Concurrent Data Store applications to do locking across multiple databases.</p>
<p>The other two flags, <a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html#DB_NOMMAP">DB_NOMMAP</a> and <a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html#DB_TXN_NOSYNC">DB_TXN_NOSYNC</a>, were
specified to the <a href="../../api_c/env_open.html">DB_ENV->open</a> method in previous releases. In
the 3.2 release, they have been moved to the <a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html">DB_ENV->set_flags</a> method
because this allows the database environment's value to be toggled
during the life of the application as well as because it is a more
appropriate place for them. Applications specifying either the
<a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html#DB_NOMMAP">DB_NOMMAP</a> or <a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html#DB_TXN_NOSYNC">DB_TXN_NOSYNC</a> flags to the
<a href="../../api_c/env_open.html">DB_ENV->open</a> method should replace those flags with calls to the
<a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html">DB_ENV->set_flags</a> method.</p>
