Most of those functions can potentially fail because a page that needs to be flushed is not currently available. However, this is not a hard failure and is rarely cause for concern. In the Berkeley DB 3.2 release, the C++ API (if that API is configured to throw exceptions) and the Java API have been changed so that this failure does not throw an exception, but rather returns a non-zero error code of DB_INCOMPLETE.</p> <p>The following C++ methods will return DB_INCOMPLETE rather than throw an exception: <a href="../../api_cxx/db_close.html">Db::close</a>, <a href="../../api_cxx/db_sync.html">Db::sync</a>, DbEnv::memp_sync, DbEnv::txn_checkpoint, DbMpoolFile::memp_fsync.</p> <p>The following Java methods are now declared "public int" rather than "public void", and will return Db.DB_INCOMPLETE rather than throw an exception: Db.close, Db.sync, and DbEnv.checkpoint.</p> <p>It is likely that the only change required by any application will be those currently checking for a DB_INCOMPLETE return that has been encapsulated in an exception.</p> <table width="100%"><tr><td><br></td><td align=right><a href="../upgrade.3.2/renumber.html"><img src="../../images/prev.gif" alt="Prev"></a><a href="../toc.html"><img src="../../images/ref.gif" alt="Ref"></a><a href="../upgrade.3.2/tx_recover.html"><img src="../../images/next.gif" alt="Next"></a> </td></tr></table> <p><font size=1>Copyright (c) 1996,2007 Oracle.
