 APIRef 

#include <db.h>


int
DB->get_type(DB *db, DBTYPE *type);

Description

The DB->get_type function stores the type of the underlying access method (and file format) into the memory referenced by type. The returned value is one of DB_BTREE, DB_HASH, DB_RECNO, or DB_QUEUE. This value may be used to determine the type of the database after a return from DB->open with the type argument set to DB_UNKNOWN.

The DB->get_type interface may be called only after the DB->open interface has been called.

Errors

The DB->get_type function may fail and return a non-zero error for the following conditions:

EINVAL
An invalid flag value or parameter was specified.

Called before DB->open was called.

The DB->get_type function may fail and return a non-zero error for errors specified for other Berkeley DB and C library or system functions. If a catastrophic error has occurred, the DB->get_type function may fail and return DB_RUNRECOVERY, in which case all subsequent Berkeley DB calls will fail in the same way.
