<h3><pre>

Db::set_encrypt(const char *passwd, u_int32_t flags);
</pre></h3>
<h1>Description</h1>
<p>Set the password used by the <a href="../api_cxx/env_class.html">DbEnv</a> and <a href="../api_cxx/db_class.html">Db</a> methods to
perform encryption and decryption.
<p>The <b>flags</b> value must be set to 0 or
the following value:
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt><a name="DB_ENCRYPT_AES">DB_ENCRYPT_AES</a><dd>Use the Rijndael/AES (also known as the Advanced Encryption Standard
and Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 197) algorithm for
encryption or decryption.
</dl>
<p>Because databases opened within Berkeley DB environments use the password
specified to the environment, it is an error to attempt to set a
password in a database created within an environment.
<p>The Db::set_encrypt interface may not be called after the <a href="../api_cxx/db_open.html">Db::open</a>
interface is called.
<p>The Db::set_encrypt method either returns a non-zero error value or throws an exception that
encapsulates a non-zero error value on failure, and returns 0 on success.
<h1>Errors</h1>
<p>The Db::set_encrypt method may fail and throw an exception or return a non-zero error for the following conditions:
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt>EINVAL<dd>An invalid flag value or parameter was specified.
<p>Called after
<a href="../api_cxx/db_open.html">Db::open</a>
was called.
</dl>
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt>EOPNOTSUPP<dd>Cryptography is not available in this Berkeley DB release.
</dl>
<p>The Db::set_encrypt method may fail and throw an exception or return a non-zero error for errors specified for other Berkeley DB and C library or system methods.
If a catastrophic error has occurred, the Db::set_encrypt method may fail and
either return <a href="../ref/program/errorret.html#DB_RUNRECOVERY">DB_RUNRECOVERY</a> or throw a
<a href="../api_cxx/runrec_class.html">DbRunRecoveryException</a>,
in which case all subsequent Berkeley DB calls will fail in the same way.
