|
|
<h1>Description</h1>
|
|
<p>The DB->fd function
|
|
copies a file descriptor representative of the underlying database into
|
|
the memory referenced by <b>fdp</b>. A file descriptor referencing the
|
|
same file will be returned to all processes that call <a href="../api_c/db_open.html">DB->open</a> with
|
|
the same <b>file</b> argument. This file descriptor may be safely used
|
|
as an argument to the <b>fcntl</b>(2) and <b>flock</b>(2) locking
|
|
functions. The file descriptor is not necessarily associated with any of
|
|
the underlying files actually used by the access method.
|
|
<p>The DB->fd function only supports a coarse-grained form of locking.
|
|
Applications should use the lock manager where possible.
|
|
<p>The DB->fd function returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
|
|
<h1>Errors</h1>
|
|
<p>The DB->fd function may fail and return a non-zero error for errors specified for other Berkeley DB and C library or system functions.
|
|
If a catastrophic error has occurred, the DB->fd function may fail and return
|
|
<a href="../ref/program/errorret.html#DB_RUNRECOVERY">DB_RUNRECOVERY</a>, in which case all subsequent Berkeley DB calls will fail
|
|
in the same way.
