The <code class="methodname">DB_MPOOLFILE->set_clear_len()</code> method sets the number of initial
bytes in a page that should be set to nul when the page is created as
a result of the
<a class="link" href="mempfget.html#mpoolfget_DB_MPOOL_CREATE">DB_MPOOL_CREATE</a>
or <a class="link" href="mempfget.html#mpoolfget_DB_MPOOL_NEW">DB_MPOOL_NEW</a>
flags specified to <a class="xref" href="mempfget.html" title="DB_MPOOLFILE->get()">DB_MPOOLFILE->get()</a>. If no
clear length is specified, the entire page is cleared when it is
created.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB_MPOOLFILE->set_clear_len()</code> method configures a file in the
cache, not only operations performed using the specified
<a class="link" href="memp.html" title="Chapter 8. The DB_MPOOLFILE Handle">DB_MPOOLFILE</a> handle.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB_MPOOLFILE->set_clear_len()</code> method may not be called after the
<a class="xref" href="mempfopen.html" title="DB_MPOOLFILE->open()">DB_MPOOLFILE->open()</a>
method is called. If the file is already open in the cache when
<a class="xref" href="mempfopen.html" title="DB_MPOOLFILE->open()">DB_MPOOLFILE->open()</a> is
called, the information specified to <code class="methodname">DB_MPOOLFILE->set_clear_len()</code>
must be consistent with the existing file or an error will be returned.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB_MPOOLFILE->set_clear_len()</code> <span>
<span>
method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
