#include <db.h>

int
DBENV->set_lk_max(DB_ENV *dbenv, u_int32_t lk_max);

Description

Set the maximum number of locks to be held or requested in the table. This value is used by DBENV->open to estimate how much space to allocate for various lock-table data structures. If no value is specified, a default value is used.

The DBENV->set_lk_max interface may only be used to configure Berkeley DB before the DBENV->open interface is called.

The DBENV->set_lk_max function returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.

The environment's maximum number of locks may also be set using the environment's DB_CONFIG file. The syntax of the entry in that file is a single line with the string "set_lk_max", one or more whitespace characters, and the number of locks. Configuration in the DB_CONFIG file silently overrules configuration done using the DBENV->set_lk_max function.

Errors

EINVAL

An invalid flag value or parameter was specified.

Called after DBENV->open was called.
