<h3>Description: DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;set_priority</h3>
<p>Set the cache priority for pages from the specified file.  The priority
of a page biases the replacement algorithm to be more or less likely to
discard a page when space is needed in the buffer pool.  The bias is
temporary, and pages will eventually be discarded if they are not
referenced again.  The DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;set_priority method is only advisory, and
does not guarantee pages will be treated in a specific way.</p>
<p>To set the priority for the pages belonging to a particular database,
call the DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;set_priority method using the <a href="../api_c/mempfile_class.html">DB_MPOOLFILE</a>
handle stored in the <b>mpf</b> field of the <a href="../api_c/db_class.html">DB</a> handle.</p>
<p>The DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;set_priority method configures a file in the memory pool, not only
operations performed using the specified <a href="../api_c/mempfile_class.html">DB_MPOOLFILE</a> handle.</p>
<p>The DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;set_priority method may be called at any time during the life of the
application.</p>
<p>The DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;set_priority method
returns a non-zero error value on failure
and 0 on success.
</p>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<dl compact>
<dt><b>priority</b><dd>The <b>priority</b> parameter must be set to one of the following
values:
<dl compact>
<dt><a name="DB_PRIORITY_VERY_LOW">DB_PRIORITY_VERY_LOW</a><dd>The lowest priority: pages are the most likely to be discarded.
<dt><a name="DB_PRIORITY_LOW">DB_PRIORITY_LOW</a><dd>The next lowest priority.
<dt><a name="DB_PRIORITY_DEFAULT">DB_PRIORITY_DEFAULT</a><dd>The default priority.
<dt><a name="DB_PRIORITY_HIGH">DB_PRIORITY_HIGH</a><dd>The next highest priority.
<dt><a name="DB_PRIORITY_VERY_HIGH">DB_PRIORITY_VERY_HIGH</a><dd>The highest priority: pages are the least likely to be discarded.
</dl>

<h3>Description: DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;get_priority</h3>
<p>The DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;get_priority method returns the cache priority.</p>
<p>The DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;get_priority method may be called at any time during the life of the
application.</p>
<p>The DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;get_priority method
returns a non-zero error value on failure
and 0 on success.
</p>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<dl compact>
<dt><b>priorityp</b><dd>The DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;get_priority method returns  the
cache priority in <b>priorityp</b>.
