51 | See also the example sections in the document below and possibly the eg/ |
|
|
52 | subdirectory of the BDB distribution. Last not least see the IO::AIO |
|
|
53 | documentation, as that module uses almost the same asynchronous request |
|
|
54 | model as this module. |

138 | =head2 WIN32 FILENAMES/DATABASE NAME MESS |
|
|
139 | |
|
|
140 | Perl on Win32 supports only ASCII filenames (the reason is that it abuses |
|
|
141 | an internal flag to store wether a filename is Unicode or ANSI, but that |
|
|
142 | flag is used for somethign else in the perl core, so there is no way to |
|
|
143 | detect wether a filename is ANSI or Unicode-encoded). The BDB module |
|
|
144 | tries to work around this issue by assuming that the filename is an ANSI |
|
|
145 | filename and BDB was built for unicode support. |
|
|
146 | |
|
|
147 | =head2 BERKELEYDB FUNCTIONS |
|
|
148 | |
|
|
149 | All of these are functions. The create functions simply return a new |
|
|
150 | object and never block. All the remaining functions take an optional |
|
|
151 | callback as last argument. If it is missing, then the function will be |
|
|
152 | executed synchronously. In both cases, C<$!> will reflect the return value |
|
|
153 | of the function. |
|
|
154 | |
|
|
155 | BDB functions that cannot block (mostly functions that manipulate |
|
|
156 | settings) are method calls on the relevant objects, so the rule of thumb |
|
|
157 | is: if it's a method, it's not blocking, if it's a function, it takes a |
|
|
158 | callback as last argument. |
|
|
159 | |
|
|
160 | In the following, C<$int> signifies an integer return value, |
|
|
161 | C<octetstring> is a "binary string" (i.e. a perl string with no character |
|
|
162 | indices >255), C<U32> is an unsigned 32 bit integer, C<int> is some |
|
|
163 | integer, C<NV> is a floating point value. |
|
|
164 | |
|
|
165 | The C<SV *> types are generic perl scalars (for input and output of data |
|
|
166 | values), and the C<SV *callback> is the optional callback function to call |
|
|
167 | when the request is completed. |
|
|
168 | |
|
|
169 | The various C<DB_ENV> etc. arguments are handles return by |
|
|
170 | C<db_env_create>, C<db_create>, C<txn_begin> and so on. If they have an |
|
|
171 | appended C<_ornull> this means they are optional and you can pass C<undef> |
|
|
172 | for them, resulting a NULL pointer on the C level. |
|

|
|
233 | This is not actually a Berkeley DB function but a BDB module |
|
|
234 | extension. The background for this exytension is: It is very annoying to |
|
|
235 | have to check every single BDB function for error returns and provide a |
|
|
236 | codepath out of your transaction. While the BDB module still makes this |
|
|
237 | possible, it contains the following extensions: |
|
|
238 | |
|
|
239 | When a transaction-protected function returns any operating system |
|
|
240 | error (errno > 0), BDB will set the C<TXN_DEADLOCK> flag on the |
|
|
241 | transaction. This flag is also set by Berkeley DB functions themselves |
|
|
242 | when an operation fails with LOCK_DEADLOCK, and it causes all further |
|
|
243 | operations on that transaction (including C<db_txn_commit>) to fail. |
|
|
244 | |
|
|
245 | The C<db_txn_finish> request will look at this flag, and, if it is set, |
|
|
246 | will automatically call C<db_txn_abort> (setting errno to C<LOCK_DEADLOCK> |
|
|
247 | if it isn't set to something else yet). If it isn't set, it will call |
|
|
248 | C<db_txn_commit> and return the error normally. |
|
|
249 | |
|
|
250 | How to use this? Easy: just write your transaction normally: |
|
|
251 | |
|
|
252 | my $txn = $db_env->txn_begin; |
|
|
253 | db_get $db, $txn, "key", my $data; |
|
|
254 | db_put $db, $txn, "key", $data + 1 unless $! == BDB::NOTFOUND; |
|
|
255 | db_txn_finish $txn; |
|
|
256 | die "transaction failed" if $!; |
|
|
257 | |
|
|
258 | That is, handle only the expected errors. If something unexpected happens |
|
|
259 | (EIO, LOCK_NOTGRANTED or a deadlock in either db_get or db_put), then the remaining |
|
|
260 | requests (db_put in this case) will simply be skipped (they will fail with |
|
|
261 | LOCK_DEADLOCK) and the transaction will be aborted. |
|
|
262 | |
|
|
263 | You can use the C<< $txn->failed >> method to check wether a transaction |
|
|
264 | has failed in this way and abort further processing (excluding |
|
|
265 | C<db_txn_finish>). |
