DB->set_re_pad()
#include <db.h>
int
DB->set_re_pad(DB *db, int re_pad); Set the padding character for short, fixed-length records for the Queue and Recno access methods.
If no pad character is specified, <space> characters (that is, ASCII 0x20) are used for padding.
The DB->set_re_pad() method configures a database, not only operations performed using the specified DB handle.
The DB->set_re_pad() method may not be called after the DB->open() method is called. If the database already exists when DB->open() is called, the information specified to DB->set_re_pad() will be ignored.
The DB->set_re_pad() method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
Parameters
re_pad
The re_pad parameter is the pad character for fixed-length records for the Queue and Recno access methods.
Errors
The DB->set_re_pad() method may fail and return one of the following non-zero errors:
EINVAL
If the method was called after DB->open() was called; or if an invalid flag value or parameter was specified.
