<h3>Description: DB_ENV-&gt;set_tas_spins</h3>
<a name="3"><!--meow--></a>
<p>Specify that test-and-set mutexes should spin <b>tas_spins</b> times
without blocking.  The value defaults to 1 on uniprocessor systems and
to 50 times the number of processors on multiprocessor systems.</p>
<p>The database environment's test-and-set spin count may also be set using the environment's
<b>DB_CONFIG</b> file.  The syntax of the entry in that file is a
single line with the string "set_tas_spins", one or more whitespace characters,
and the number of spins.
Because the <b>DB_CONFIG</b> file is read when the database
environment is opened, it will silently overrule configuration done
before that time.</p>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;set_tas_spins method configures operations performed using the specified
<a href="../../db42-devel-4.2.52/api_c/env_class.html">DB_ENV</a> handle, not all operations performed on the underlying
database environment.</p>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;set_tas_spins method may be called at any time during the life of the
application.</p>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;set_tas_spins method
returns a non-zero error value on failure
and 0 on success.
</p>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt><b>tas_spins</b><dd>
The <b>tas_spins</b> parameter is the number of spins test-and-set
mutexes should execute before blocking.
</dl>
<h3>Errors</h3>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;set_tas_spins method
may fail and return one of the following non-zero errors:</p>
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt>EINVAL<dd>An
invalid flag value or parameter was specified.
</dl>

<h3>Description: DB_ENV-&gt;get_tas_spins</h3>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;get_tas_spins method returns the test-and-set spin count.</p>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;get_tas_spins method may be called at any time during the life of the
application.</p>
<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;get_tas_spins method
returns a non-zero error value on failure
and 0 on success.
</p>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt><b>tas_spinsp</b><dd>
The DB_ENV-&gt;get_tas_spins method returns  the
test-and-set spin count in <b>tas_spinsp</b>.
