<h3>Description: DbEnv::set_msgcall</h3>
<p>There are interfaces in the Berkeley DB library which either directly output
informational messages or statistical information, or configure the
library to output such messages when performing other operations, for
example, <a href="../../db43-devel-4.3.21/api_cxx/env_set_verbose.html">DbEnv::set_verbose</a> and <a href="../../db43-devel-4.3.21/api_cxx/env_stat.html">DbEnv::stat_print</a>.</p>
<p>The DbEnv::set_msgcall and Db::set_msgcall methods are used to
pass these messages to the application, and Berkeley DB will call
<b>db_msgcall_fcn</b> with each message. It is up to the
<b>db_msgcall_fcn</b> function to display the message in an appropriate
manner.</p>
<p>Setting <b>db_msgcall_fcn</b> to NULL unconfigures the callback interface.</p>
<p>Alternatively, you can use the <a href="../../db43-devel-4.3.21/api_cxx/env_set_msg_stream.html">DbEnv::set_message_stream</a> and
<a href="../../db43-devel-4.3.21/api_cxx/db_set_msg_stream.html">Db::set_message_stream</a> methods to display the messages via an output
stream, or the <a href="../../db43-devel-4.3.21/api_cxx/db_set_msgfile.html">Db::set_msgfile</a> or <a href="../../db43-devel-4.3.21/api_cxx/env_set_msgfile.html">DbEnv::set_msgfile</a> methods
to display the messages via a C library FILE *.</p>
<p>The DbEnv::set_msgcall method may be called at any time during the life of the
application.</p>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<dl compact>
<dt><b>db_msgcall_fcn</b><dd>The <b>db_msgcall_fcn</b> parameter is the application-specified message
reporting function. The function takes two parameters:
<dl compact>
<dt><b>dbenv</b><dd>The <b>dbenv</b> parameter is the enclosing database environment.
<dt><b>msg</b><dd>The <b>msg</b> parameter is the message string.
