#include <db_cxx.h> int DbEnv::set_blob_dir(const char *dir);
The DbEnv::set_blob_dir() method sets the
directory where BLOB data is stored. Use this method when the
database is opened within an encompassing environment. If an
environment is not in use, use Db::set_blob_dir() instead.
By default, if this method is not called then BLOB data is placed in a subdirectory within the DB's environment.
Once this method has been used, you can call DbEnv::get_blob_dir() to identify the current storage location used for BLOB data.
This method configures operations performed using the specified DbEnv handle, not all operations performed on the underlying database environment.
This method may not be called after DbEnv::open() is called.
Unless otherwise specified, the
DbEnv::set_blob_dir()
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.
The DbEnv::set_blob_dir()
method may fail and throw a DbException
exception, encapsulating one of the following non-zero errors, or return one
of the following non-zero errors:
If the method was called after Db::open() was called; or if an invalid parameter was specified.
