      <p>
        When an error occurs in the Berkeley DB library,
        
         <span>
             an exception is thrown
         </span>
         or an error return value is returned by the interface.  In some cases,
         however, the <span class="bold"><strong>errno</strong></span> value may be
         insufficient to completely describe the cause of the error, especially
         during initial application debugging.
    </p>
      <p>
         The <code class="methodname">DbEnv::set_errcall()</code> and 
         <a class="xref" href="envset_errcall.html" title="DbEnv::set_errcall()">DbEnv::set_errcall()</a>  methods
         are used to enhance the mechanism for reporting error messages to the
         application. In some cases, when an error occurs, Berkeley DB will
         call <span class="bold"><strong>db_errcall_fcn</strong></span> with additional
         error information.  It is up to the <span class="bold"><strong>db_errcall_fcn</strong></span> function to display the error
         message in an appropriate manner.
    </p>
      <p>
         Setting <span class="bold"><strong>db_errcall_fcn</strong></span> to NULL
         unconfigures the callback interface.
    </p>
      <p>
         Alternatively, you can use the
            <span>
                <a class="xref" href="envset_error_stream.html" title="DbEnv::set_error_stream()">DbEnv::set_error_stream()</a>
                and
                <a class="xref" href="dbset_error_stream.html" title="Db::set_error_stream()">Db::set_error_stream()</a>
                methods to display the additional information via an output stream, or the
            </span>

         <a class="xref" href="dbset_errfile.html" title="Db::set_errfile()">Db::set_errfile()</a>  or
         <a class="xref" href="envset_errfile.html" title="DbEnv::set_errfile()">Db::set_errfile()</a>
         methods to display the additional information via a C library <code class="literal">FILE *</code>.
         <span>You should not mix these approaches.</span>
    </p>
      <p>
         This error-logging enhancement does not slow performance or
         significantly increase application size, and may be run during normal
         operation as well as during application debugging.
    </p>
      <p>
         The <code class="methodname">DbEnv::set_errcall()</code> method configures operations performed
         using the specified <a class="link" href="env.html" title="Chapter 5.  The DbEnv Handle">DbEnv</a>  handle, not all
         operations performed on the underlying database environment.
    </p>
      <p>
         The <code class="methodname">DbEnv::set_errcall()</code> method may be called at any time during the
         life of the application.
    </p>
      <div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;">
        <h3 class="title">Note</h3>
        <p>
            Berkeley DB is not re-entrant. Callback functions should not attempt to make library
            calls (for example, to release locks or close open handles). Re-entering Berkeley DB is
            not guaranteed to work correctly, and the results are undefined.
