<b><pre>db_codegen [<b>-Vv</b>] [<b>-a c</b>] [<b>-i file</b>] [<b>-o file</b>]</pre></b>
<b>Description</b>
<a name="2"><!--meow--></a>
<p>The db_codegen utility generates application code to create and
configure Berkeley DB database environments and databases based on a simple
description language, and writes it to one or more output files. The
generated code may need modification, in the case of complicated
applications, but will usually significantly reduce the time required
to create Berkeley DB applications.</p>
<p>The options are as follows:</p>
<br>
<b>-a</b><ul compact><li>Generate code for the specified API (currently, only "c" is accepted).</ul>
<b>-i</b><ul compact><li>Specify an input file; by default, stdin is used.</ul>
<b>-o</b><ul compact><li>Specify an output file prefix; by default, "application" is used.</ul>
<b>-V</b><ul compact><li>Write the library version number to the standard output, and exit.</ul>
<b>-v</b><ul compact><li>Run in verbose mode.</ul>
<br>
<p>The db_codegen utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.</p>
<b>C Language Specific Information</b>
<p>By default, when the db_codegen utility generates C-language
code, the output file is named "application.c". The output filename
can be specified with <b>-o</b> option.</p>
<p>At the beginning of the output file is a list of public database
environment (<a href="../../db4-devel-4.7.25/api_c/env_class.html">DB_ENV</a>) handles and database (<a href="../../db4-devel-4.7.25/api_c/db_class.html">DB</a>) handles,
as specified by the description language. The database environment
handle variables are named "XXX_dbenv", where "XXX" is the name of the
environment in the input specification. For databases associated with
a database environment, the database handle variables are named
"XXX_YYY", where "XXX" is the name of the environment, and "YYY" is the
name of the database. For standalone databases, the database handle
variables are named "XXX", where "XXX" is the name of the database.</p>
<p>There are two public functions in the output file: bdb_startup and
bdb_shutdown. The bdb_startup function should be called to create and
configure the database environments and databases, and the bdb_shutdown
function should be called to gracefully shut down the environments and
databases.</p>
<b>Specification Language</b>
<p>The db_codegen uses a simple description language:</p>
<p><ul type=disc>
<li>Lines in the input consist of white-space separated tokens.
<li>Tokens are case-insensitive.
<li>Empty lines, and lines where the first non-space character
is hash mark ("#"). are ignored. In addition, hash marks may appear
in lines, in which case the content of the line from the hash mark to
the end of the line is ignored.
</ul>
<p>There are two top-level objects: "environment" and "database", which
correspond to database environments and databases, respectively. These
top-level objects can be associated with keywords to describe their
configuration and relationships.</p>
<p>For example, the following input would create two standalone databases:</p>
<blockquote><pre>database data_one {
type btree
}
database data_two {
type btree
}</pre></blockquote>
<p>In this case, there would be no <a href="../../db4-devel-4.7.25/api_c/env_class.html">DB_ENV</a> handle, and the public
<a href="../../db4-devel-4.7.25/api_c/db_class.html">DB</a> handles would be:</p>
<blockquote><pre>DB *data_one;
DB *data_two;</pre></blockquote>
<p>For example, the following input would create a database environment
which contains three databases:</p>
<blockquote><pre>environment myenv {
database data_one {
type btree
}
database data_two {
type btree
}
database data_three {
type btree
}
}</pre></blockquote>
<p>In this case, the public <a href="../../db4-devel-4.7.25/api_c/env_class.html">DB_ENV</a> and <a href="../../db4-devel-4.7.25/api_c/db_class.html">DB</a> handles would be:</p>
<blockquote><pre>DB_ENV *myenv_dbenv;
DB *myenv_data_one;
DB *myenv_data_two;
DB *myenv_data_three;</pre></blockquote>
<p>A variety of keywords can be specified for the databases and the
environments. For example, the cache size can be specified for
the database environment, and the page size can be specified for
the database, as well as secondary relationships:</p>
<blockquote><pre>environment myenv {
cachesize 2 0 10
database data_one {
type btree
pagesize 1024
}
database data_two {
primary data_one
secondary_offset 10 15
type btree
pagesize 32768
}
database data_three {
type btree
pagesize 512
}
}</pre></blockquote>
<b>Environment Keywords</b>
<br>
<b>environment</b><ul compact><li>Start a database environment block.
<p>There must be three tokens on the line: the keyword, the name of the
environment and an opening brace ("{").</p></ul>
<b>home</b><ul compact><li>Specify the database environment home directory.
<p>There must be two tokens on the line: the keyword, and the home
directory.</p></ul>
<b>cachesize</b><ul compact><li>Specify the database environment cache size.
<p>There must be two tokens on the line: the keyword, the gigabytes of
cache, the bytes of cache, and the number of caches (the number of
underlying physical areas into which the cache is logically
divided).</p></ul>
<b>private</b><ul compact><li>Specify the database environment is private.
<p>There must be one token on the line: the keyword by itself.</p></ul>
<b>}</b><ul compact><li>End the database environment block.

<p>There must be three tokens on the line: the keyword, the name of the
database and an opening brace ("{").</p></ul>
<b>custom</b><ul compact><li>Specify a custom key-comparison routine. This is used when the Btree
database requires a specific sort that db_codegen cannot
generate. A stub key comparison routine will be created and configured

<b>dupsort</b><ul compact><li>Configure the database to support sorted duplicates.

<p>There must be two tokens on the line: the keyword, and the extent file size,
as a number of pages.</p></ul>
<b>key_type</b><ul compact><li>Configure a integral type key-comparison routine. This is used when the
Btree database Btree database key is an integral type (such as "unsigned
int", or "u_int32_t"). Any C-language integral type may be specified.
See the "custom" keyword for more information. A Btree comparison routine
based on the type of the key will be created and configured.
<p>There must be two tokens on the line: the keyword, and the type.</p></ul>
<b>pagesize</b><ul compact><li>Configure the database page size.
<p>There must be two tokens on the line: the keyword, and the page size

<b>re_len</b><ul compact><li>Configure the record length for a Queue database or a fixed-length Recno
