DbEnv::set_errpfx()

#include <db_cxx.h>

void
DbEnv::set_errpfx(const char *errpfx); 

Set the prefix string that appears before error messages issued by Berkeley DB. The length of this string can be no longer than 200.

The Db::set_errpfx() and DbEnv::set_errpfx() methods do not copy the memory to which the errpfx parameter refers; rather, they maintain a reference to it. Although this allows applications to modify the error message prefix at any time (without repeatedly calling the interfaces), it means the memory must be maintained until the handle is closed.

The DbEnv::set_errpfx() method configures operations performed using the specified DbEnv handle, not all operations performed on the underlying database environment.

The DbEnv::set_errpfx() method may be called at any time during the life of the application.

Parameters

errpfx

The errpfx parameter is the application-specified error prefix for additional error messages.
