public class Database
Creates a database handle for a single Berkeley DB database. A Berkeley DB database provides a mechanism for organizing key-data pairs of information. From the perspective of some database systems, a Berkeley DB database could be thought of as a single table within a larger database.
For most database activities, you must open the handle using the open method. When you are done with them, handles must be closed using the close method.
It is possible to create databases such that they are organized within a
database environment. Environments are optional for simple Berkeley DB applications
that do not use transactions, recovery, replication or any other advanced features.
For simple Berkeley DB applications, environments still offer some advantages.
For example, they provide some organizational benefits on-disk (all databases
are located on disk relative to the environment). Also, if you are using
multiple databases, then environments allow your databases to share a
common in-memory cache, which makes for more efficient usage of your hardware's resources.
See Environment
for information on using database environments.
Database handles are free-threaded unless opened in an environment that is not free-threaded.
Database attributes are specified in the DatabaseConfig
class.
To open an existing database with default attributes:
To create a transactional database that supports duplicates:Environment env = new Environment(home, null); Database myDatabase = env.openDatabase(null, "mydatabase", null);
DatabaseConfig dbConfig = new DatabaseConfig(); dbConfig.setTransactional(true); dbConfig.setAllowCreate(true); dbConfig.setSortedDuplicates(true); Database newlyCreateDb = env.openDatabase(txn, "mydatabase", dbConfig);

public Database(String filename, String databaseName, DatabaseConfig config) throws DatabaseException, FileNotFoundException
The database is represented by the file and database parameters.
The currently supported database file formats (or access methods) are Btree, Hash, Queue, and Recno. The Btree format is a representation of a sorted, balanced tree structure. The Hash format is an extensible, dynamic hashing scheme. The Queue format supports fast access to fixed-length records accessed sequentially or by logical record number. The Recno format supports fixed- or variable-length records, accessed sequentially or by logical record number, and optionally backed by a flat text file.
Storage and retrieval are based on key/data pairs; see DatabaseEntry
for more information.
Opening a database is a relatively expensive operation, and maintaining a set of open databases will normally be preferable to repeatedly opening and closing the database for each new query.
In-memory databases never intended to be preserved on disk may be
created by setting both the fileName and databaseName parameters to
null. Note that in-memory databases can only ever be shared by sharing
the single database handle that created them, in circumstances where
doing so is safe. The environment variable TMPDIR
may
be used as a directory in which to create temporary backing files.
filename
- The name of an underlying file that will be used to back the database.
On Windows platforms, this argument will be interpreted as a UTF-8
string, which is equivalent to ASCII for Latin characters.
databaseName
- An optional parameter that allows applications to have multiple
databases in a single file. Although no databaseName parameter needs
to be specified, it is an error to attempt to open a second database in
a physical file that was not initially created using a databaseName
parameter. Further, the databaseName parameter is not supported by the
Queue format.
config
- The database open attributes. If null, default attributes are used.
DatabaseException
FileNotFoundException
Method Detail |
---|
public void close(boolean noSync) throws DatabaseException
Although closing a database handle will close any open cursors, it is
recommended that applications explicitly close all their Cursor
handles before closing the database. The reason why is that when the cursor
is explicitly closed, the memory allocated for it is reclaimed; however,
this will not happen if you close a database while cursors are still open.
The same rule, for the same reasons, hold true for
Transaction
handles.
Make sure you close all your transaction handles before closing your database handle.
Because key/data pairs are cached in memory, failing to sync the file
with the Database.close
or Database.sync
methods
may result in inconsistent or lost information.
So, to ensure that any data cached in main memory are reflected
in the underlying file system, applications should make a point to
always either close database handles or sync their data to disk.
When multiple threads are using the Database
handle
concurrently, only a single thread may call this method.
The database handle may not be accessed again after this method is called, regardless of the method's success or failure.
When called on a database that is the primary database for a secondary index, the primary database should be closed only after all secondary indices which reference it have been closed. If you do not close the database handle explicitly, it will be closed when the environment handle that owns the database handle is closed.
noSync
- Do not flush cached information to disk. The noSync parameter is a
dangerous option. It should be set only if the application is doing
logging (with transactions) so that the database is recoverable after a
system or application crash, or if the database is always generated from
scratch after any system or application crash.
It is important to understand that flushing cached information to disk
only minimizes the window of opportunity for corrupted data.
Although unlikely, it is possible for database corruption to happen if a system or application crash occurs while writing data to the database. To ensure that database corruption never occurs, applications must either: use transactions and logging with automatic recovery; use logging and application-specific recovery; or edit a copy of the database, and once all applications using the database have successfully called this method, atomically replace the original database with the updated copy.
Note that this flag only works when the database has been opened using an environment.
DatabaseException
- if a failure occurs.public void close() throws DatabaseException
Although closing a database handle will close any open cursors, it is
recommended that applications explicitly close all their Cursor
handles before closing the database. The reason why is that when the cursor
is explicitly closed, the memory allocated for it is reclaimed; however,
this will not happen if you close a database while cursors are still open.
The same rule, for the same reasons, hold true for
Transaction
handles.
Make sure you close all your transaction handles before closing your database handle.
Because key/data pairs are cached in memory, failing to sync the file
with the Database.close
or Database.sync
methods
may result in inconsistent or lost information.
So, to ensure that any data cached in main memory are reflected
in the underlying file system, applications should make a point to
always either close database handles or sync their data to disk.
When multiple threads are using the Database
handle
concurrently, only a single thread may call this method.
The database handle may not be accessed again after this method is called, regardless of the method's success or failure.
When called on a database that is the primary database for a secondary index, the primary database should be closed only after all secondary indices which reference it have been closed. If you do not close the database handle explicitly, it will be closed when the environment handle that owns the database handle is closed.
DatabaseException
- if a failure occurs.public CompactStats compact(Transaction txn, DatabaseEntry start, DatabaseEntry stop, DatabaseEntry end, CompactConfig config) throws DatabaseException
txn
- If the operation is part of an application-specified transaction, the txnid
parameter is a transaction handle returned from Environment.beginTransaction(com.sleepycat.db.Transaction, com.sleepycat.db.TransactionConfig)
, otherwise NULL
.
If a transaction handle is supplied to this method, then the operation is performed using that transaction. In this event, large sections of the tree may be locked during the course of the transaction.
If no transaction handle is specified, but the operation occurs in a transactional database, the operation will be implicitly transaction protected using multiple transactions. These transactions will be periodically committed to avoid locking large sections of the tree. Any deadlocks encountered cause the compaction operation to be retried from the point of the last transaction commit.
start
- If not null
, the start
parameter is the starting
point for compaction in a Btree or Recno database. Compaction will start
at the smallest key greater than or equal to the specified key. If
null
, compaction will start at the beginning of the database.stop
- If not null
, the stop
parameter is the stopping
point for compaction in a Btree or Recno database. Compaction will stop at
the page with the smallest key greater than the specified key. If
null
, compaction will stop at the end of the database.end
- If not null
, the end
parameter will be filled in
with the key marking the end of the compaction operation in a Btree or
Recno database. It is generally the first key of the page where processing
stopped.config
- The compaction operation attributes. If null, default attributes are used.
DatabaseException
public Cursor openCursor(Transaction txn, CursorConfig config) throws DatabaseException
txn
- To use a cursor for writing to a transactional database, an explicit
transaction must be specified. For read-only access to a transactional
database, the transaction may be null. For a non-transactional database,
the transaction must be null.
To transaction-protect cursor operations, cursors must be opened and closed within the context of a transaction, and the txn parameter specifies the transaction context in which the cursor will be used.
config
- The cursor attributes. If null, default attributes are used.
DatabaseException
- if a failure occurs.public Sequence openSequence(Transaction txn, DatabaseEntry key, SequenceConfig config) throws DatabaseException
txn
- For a transactional database, an explicit transaction may be specified, or
null may be specified to use auto-commit. For a non-transactional
database, null must be specified.
If no transaction handle is specified, but the operation occurs in a
transactional database, the operation will be implicitly transaction protected.
key
- The key DatabaseEntry
of the sequence.
It specifies which record in the database stores the persistent sequence data.
config
- The sequence attributes. If null, default attributes are used.
DatabaseException

This method may be called at any time during the life of the application.
DatabaseException
- if a failure occurs.public OperationStatus append(Transaction txn, DatabaseEntry key, DatabaseEntry data) throws DatabaseException
Append the key/data pair to the end of the database.
The underlying database must be a Queue or Recno database. The record number allocated to the record is returned in the key parameter.
There is a minor behavioral difference between the Recno and Queue access methods this method. If a transaction enclosing this method aborts, the record number may be decremented (and later reallocated by a subsequent operation) in the Recno access method, but will not be decremented or reallocated in the Queue access method.
It may be useful to modify the stored data based on the generated key.
If a callback function is specified using DatabaseConfig.setRecordNumberAppender
, it will be called after the record number has
been selected, but before the data has been stored.

method; otherwise null.
For a transactional database, an explicit transaction may be specified, or null
may be specified to use auto-commit. For a non-transactional database, null
must be specified.
If no transaction handle is specified, but the operation occurs in a transactional
database, the operation will be implicitly transaction protected.

Each cursor in the cursors
array must have been
initialized to refer to the key on which the underlying database should
be joined. Typically, this initialization is done by calling
Cursor.getSearchKey
.
Once the cursors have been passed to this method, they should not be accessed or modified until the newly created join cursor has been closed, or else inconsistent results may be returned. However, the position of the cursors will not be changed by this method or by the methods of the join cursor.
cursors

JoinCursor
public int truncate(Transaction txn, boolean countRecords) throws DatabaseException
When called on a database configured with secondary indices, this method truncates the primary database and all secondary indices. If configured to return a count of the records discarded, the returned count is the count of records discarded from the primary database.
It is an error to call this method on a database with open cursors.
txn
- For a transactional database, an explicit transaction may be specified, or
null may be specified to use auto-commit. For a non-transactional
database, null must be specified.
If no transaction handle is specified, but the operation occurs in a

DatabaseException
- if a failure occurs.public DatabaseStats getStats(Transaction txn, StatsConfig config) throws DatabaseException
If this method has not been configured to avoid expensive operations
(using the StatsConfig.setFast
method), it will access
some of or all the pages in the database, incurring a severe
performance penalty as well as possibly flushing the underlying
buffer pool.
In the presence of multiple threads or processes accessing an active database, the information returned by this method may be out-of-date.
If the database was not opened read-only and this method was not
configured using the StatsConfig.setFast
method, cached
key and record numbers will be updated after the statistical
information has been gathered.

parameter is a Transaction object returned from the
Environment.beginTransaction
method; if the operation is part of a Berkeley DB
Concurrent Data Store group, the txn parameter is a Transaction object returned
from the Environment.beginCDSGroup
method; otherwise null.
For a transactional database, an explicit transaction may be specified to
transaction-protect the operation, or null may be specified to perform the
operation without transaction protection. For a non-transactional
database, null must be specified.
If no transaction handle is specified, but the operation occurs in a
transactional database, the operation will be implicitly transaction protected.
config
- The statistics returned; if null, default statistics are returned.
DeadlockException

DatabaseException
- if a failure occurs.public static void remove(String fileName, String databaseName, DatabaseConfig config) throws DatabaseException, FileNotFoundException
Remove the database specified by the file and database parameters.
If no database is specified, the underlying file specified is removed, incidentally removing all of the databases it contained..
Applications should never remove databases with open Database
handles, or in the case of removing a file, when any database in the
file has an open handle. For example, some architectures do not permit
the removal of files with open system handles. On these architectures,
attempts to remove databases currently in use by any thread of control
in the system may fail.
If the database was opened within a database environment, the
environment variable DB_HOME may be used as the path of the database
environment home.
This method may not be called after calling the open method on any database handle.
If the open method has already been called on a database handle,
close the existing handle and create a new one before calling the remove method.
This method should not be called if the remove is intended to be transactionally safe;
the Environment.removeDatabase
method should be used instead.
This method is affected by any database directory specified with
EnvironmentConfig.addDataDir
, or by setting the "set_data_dir"
string in the database environment's DB_CONFIG file.
The Database
handle may not be accessed
again after this method is called, regardless of this method's success
or failure.
fileName
- The physical file which contains the database to be removed.
On Windows platforms, this argument will be interpreted as a UTF-8
string, which is equivalent to ASCII for Latin characters.
databaseName
- The database to be removed.
config
- The database remove attributes. If null, default attributes are used.
DatabaseException
- if a failure occurs.
FileNotFoundException
public static void rename(String fileName, String oldDatabaseName, String newDatabaseName, DatabaseConfig config) throws DatabaseException, FileNotFoundException
Rename a database specified by the file and database parameters.
If no database name is specified, the underlying file specified is renamed, incidentally renaming all of the databases it contains.
Applications should never rename databases that are currently in use. If an underlying file is being renamed and logging is currently enabled in the database environment, no database in the file may be open when this method is called. In particular, some architectures do not permit renaming files with open handles. On these architectures, attempts to rename databases that are currently in use by any thread of control in the system may fail.
If the database was opened within a database environment, the
environment variable DB_HOME may be used as the path of the database
environment home. This method should not be called if the rename is intended
to be transactionally safe; the
Environment.renameDatabase
method should be used instead.
This method is affected by any database directory specified with
EnvironmentConfig.addDataDir
, or by setting the "set_data_dir"
string in the database environment's DB_CONFIG file.
This method may not be called after calling the open method on any database handle.
If the open method has already been called on a database handle,
close the existing handle and create a new one before calling the rename method.
The Database
handle may not be accessed
again after this method is called, regardless of this method's success
or failure.

DatabaseException
public void sync() throws DatabaseException
If the database is in memory only, this method has no effect and will always succeed.
It is important to understand that flushing cached information to disk only minimizes the window of opportunity for corrupted data.
Although unlikely, it is possible for database corruption to happen if a system or application crash occurs while writing data to the database. To ensure that database corruption never occurs, applications must either: use transactions and logging with automatic recovery; use logging and application-specific recovery; or edit a copy of the database, and once all applications using the database have successfully closed the copy of the database, atomically replace the original database with the updated copy.
DatabaseException
- if a failure occurs.public static void upgrade(String fileName, DatabaseConfig config) throws DatabaseException, FileNotFoundException
If no upgrade is necessary, always returns success.
Database upgrades are done in place and are destructive. For example, if pages need to be allocated and no disk space is available, the database may be left corrupted. Backups should be made before databases are upgraded.
The following information is only meaningful when upgrading databases from releases before the Berkeley DB 3.1 release:
As part of the upgrade from the Berkeley DB 3.0 release to the 3.1
release, the on-disk format of duplicate data items changed. To
correctly upgrade the format requires applications to specify
whether duplicate data items in the database are sorted or not.
Configuring the database object to support sorted duplicates by the
DatabaseConfig.setSortedDuplicates
method informs this
method that the duplicates are sorted; otherwise they are assumed
to be unsorted. Incorrectly specifying this configuration
information may lead to database corruption.
Further, because this method upgrades a physical file (including all the databases it contains), it is not possible to use this method to upgrade files in which some of the databases it includes have sorted duplicate data items, and some of the databases it includes have unsorted duplicate data items. If the file does not have more than a single database, if the databases do not support duplicate data items, or if all of the databases that support duplicate data items support the same style of duplicates (either sorted or unsorted), this method will work correctly as long as the duplicate configuration is correctly specified. Otherwise, the file cannot be upgraded using this method; it must be upgraded manually by dumping and reloading the databases.
Unlike all other database operations, upgrades may only be done on a system with the same byte-order as the database.
If the database was opened within a database environment, the environment variable DB_HOME may be used as the path of the database environment home.
This method is affected by any database directory specified with
EnvironmentConfig.addDataDir
, or by setting the "set_data_dir"
string in the database environment's DB_CONFIG file.
fileName
- The physical file containing the databases to be upgraded.
DatabaseException

FileNotFoundException
public static boolean verify(String fileName, String databaseName, PrintStream dumpStream, VerifyConfig verifyConfig, DatabaseConfig dbConfig) throws DatabaseException, FileNotFoundException
This method optionally outputs the databases' key/data pairs to a file stream.
This method does not perform any locking, even in database environments are configured with a locking subsystem. As such, it should only be used on files that are not being modified by another thread of control.
This method may not be called after the database is opened.
If the database was opened within a database environment, the environment variable DB_HOME may be used as the path of the database environment home.
This method is affected by any database directory specified with
EnvironmentConfig.addDataDir
, or by setting the "set_data_dir"

or failure.
fileName
- The physical file in which the databases to be verified are found.
databaseName
- The database in the file on which the database checks for btree and
duplicate sort order and for hashing are to be performed. This
parameter should be set to null except when the operation has been
been configured by VerifyConfig.setOrderCheckOnly

dumpStream
- An optional file stream to which the databases' key/data pairs are
written. This parameter should be set to null except when the
operation has been been configured by VerifyConfig.setSalvage
