<h3>Description: DB-&gt;set_pagesize</h3>
<a name="3"><!--meow--></a>
<p>Set the size of the pages used to hold items in the database, in bytes.
The minimum page size is 512 bytes, the maximum page size is 64K bytes,
and the page size must be a power-of-two.  If the page size is not
explicitly set, one is selected based on the underlying filesystem I/O
block size.  The automatically selected size has a lower limit of 512
bytes and an upper limit of 16K bytes.</p>
<p>For information on tuning the Berkeley DB page size, see
<a href="../../db42-devel-4.2.52/ref/am_conf/pagesize.html">Selecting a page size</a>.</p>
<p>The DB-&gt;set_pagesize method configures a database, not only operations performed
using the specified <a href="../../db42-devel-4.2.52/api_c/db_class.html">DB</a> handle.</p>
<p>The DB-&gt;set_pagesize method may not be called after the <a href="../../db42-devel-4.2.52/api_c/db_open.html">DB-&gt;open</a> method is called.
If the database already exists when
<a href="../../db42-devel-4.2.52/api_c/db_open.html">DB-&gt;open</a> is called, the information specified to DB-&gt;set_pagesize will
be ignored.
</p>
If creating additional databases in a file, the page size specified must
be consistent with the existing databases in the file or an error will
be returned.
<p>The DB-&gt;set_pagesize method
returns a non-zero error value on failure
and 0 on success.
</p>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt><b>pagesize</b><dd>
The <b>pagesize</b> parameter sets the database page size.
</dl>
<h3>Errors</h3>
<p>The DB-&gt;set_pagesize method
may fail and return one of the following non-zero errors:</p>
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt>EINVAL<dd>If the method was called after <a href="../../db42-devel-4.2.52/api_c/db_open.html">DB-&gt;open</a> was called; or if an
invalid flag value or parameter was specified.
</dl>
<hr size=1 noshade>
<h3>Description: DB-&gt;get_pagesize</h3>
<p>The DB-&gt;get_pagesize method returns the page size.</p>
<p>The DB-&gt;get_pagesize method may be called at any time during the life of the
application.</p>
<p>The DB-&gt;get_pagesize method
returns a non-zero error value on failure
and 0 on success.
</p>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt><b>pagesizep</b><dd>
The DB-&gt;get_pagesize method returns  the
page size in <b>pagesizep</b>.
