<h3>Description: DB_MPOOLFILE</h3>
<p>The memory pool interfaces for the Berkeley DB database environment are
methods of the <a href="../../db42-devel-4.2.52/api_c/env_class.html">DB_ENV</a> handle.  The <a href="../../db42-devel-4.2.52/api_c/env_class.html">DB_ENV</a> memory pool
methods and the DB_MPOOLFILE class provide general-purpose,
page-oriented buffer management of files.  Although designed to work
with the other <a href="../../db42-devel-4.2.52/api_c/db_class.html">DB</a> classes, they are also useful for more general
purposes.  The memory pools are referred to in this document as simply
<i>pools</i>.</p>
<p>Pools may be shared between processes.  Pools are usually filled by
pages from one or more files.  Pages in the pool are replaced in LRU
(least-recently-used) order, with each new page replacing the page that
has been unused the longest.  Pages retrieved from the pool using
<a href="../../db42-devel-4.2.52/api_c/memp_fget.html">DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;get</a> are <i>pinned</i> in the pool until they are
returned to the control of the buffer pool using the <a href="../../db42-devel-4.2.52/api_c/memp_fput.html">DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;put</a>
method.</p>
<p>The DB_MPOOLFILE object is the handle for a file in the memory
pool.  The handle is not free-threaded.  Once the <a href="../../db42-devel-4.2.52/api_c/memp_fclose.html">DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;close</a> method
is called, the handle may not be accessed again, regardless of that
method's return.</p>
