Berkeley DB: DB_ENV->set_errcall
DB_ENV->set_errcall
|
 |
#include <db.h>
void
DB_ENV->set_errcall(DB_ENV *dbenv, void (*db_errcall_fcn)
(const DB_ENV *dbenv, const char *errpfx, const char *msg));
Description: DB_ENV->set_errcall
When an error occurs in the Berkeley DB library, a Berkeley DB error or an error
return value is returned by the interface. In some cases, however,
the errno value may be insufficient to completely describe
the cause of the error, especially during initial application debugging.
The DB_ENV->set_errcall and DB->set_errcall 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
db_errcall_fcn with additional error information. It is up to
the db_errcall_fcn function to display the error message in an
appropriate manner.
Setting db_errcall_fcn to NULL unconfigures the callback interface.
Alternatively, you can use the DB->set_errfile or
DB_ENV->set_errfile methods to display the additional information via
a C library FILE *.
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.
The DB_ENV->set_errcall method may be called at any time during the life of the
application.
Parameters
- db_errcall_fcn
- The db_errcall_fcn parameter is the application-specified error
reporting function. The function takes three parameters:
- dbenv
- The dbenv parameter is the enclosing database environment.
- errpfx
- The errpfx parameter is the prefix string (as previously set by
DB->set_errpfx or DB_ENV->set_errpfx).
- msg
- The msg parameter is the error message string.
