    Set the underlying source file for the Recno access method.
    <p>
    The purpose of the source file is to provide fast access and
    modification to databases that are normally stored as flat text
    files.
    <p>
    The recordSource parameter specifies an underlying flat text
    database file that is read to initialize a transient record number
    index.  In the case of variable length records, the records are
    separated, as specified by the
    {@link com.sleepycat.db.DatabaseConfig#setRecordDelimiter DatabaseConfig.setRecordDelimiter} method.  For example,
    standard UNIX byte stream files can be interpreted as a sequence of
    variable length records separated by newline characters (that is, ASCII
    0x0a).
    <p>
    In addition, when cached data would normally be written back to the
    underlying database file (for example, the {@link com.sleepycat.db.Database#close Database.close}
    or {@link com.sleepycat.db.Database#sync Database.sync} methods are called), the in-memory copy
    of the database will be written back to the source file.
    <p>
    By default, the backing source file is read lazily; that is, records
    are not read from the file until they are requested by the application.
    <b>
    If multiple processes (not threads) are accessing a Recno database
    concurrently, and are either inserting or deleting records, the backing
    source file must be read in its entirety before more than a single
    process accesses the database, and only that process should specify
    the backing source file as part of opening the database.  See the
    {@link com.sleepycat.db.DatabaseConfig#setSnapshot DatabaseConfig.setSnapshot} method for more information.
    </b>
    <p>
    <b>
    Reading and writing the backing source file cannot be
    transaction-protected because it involves filesystem operations that
    are not part of the {@link com.sleepycat.db.Database Database} transaction methodology.  For
    this reason, if a temporary database is used to hold the records,
    it is possible to lose the contents of the source file, for example,
    if the system crashes at the right instant.  If a file is used to
    hold the database, normal database recovery on that file can be used
    to prevent information loss, although it is still possible that the
    contents of the source file will be lost if the system crashes.
    </b>
    <p>
    The source file must already exist (but may be zero-length) when
    the database is opened.
    <p>
    It is not an error to specify a read-only source file when creating
    a database, nor is it an error to modify the resulting database.
    However, any attempt to write the changes to the backing source file
    using either the {@link com.sleepycat.db.Database#sync Database.sync} or {@link com.sleepycat.db.Database#close Database.close}
    methods will fail, of course.  Specify the noSync argument to the
    {@link com.sleepycat.db.Database#close Database.close} method to stop it from attempting to write
    the changes to the backing file; instead, they will be silently
    discarded.
    <p>
    For all of the previous reasons, the source file is generally used
    to specify databases that are read-only for Berkeley DB
    applications; and that are either generated on the fly by software
    tools or modified using a different mechanism -- for example, a text
    editor.

    <p>
    For example, the deletion of record number 4 causes records numbered
    5 and greater to be renumbered downward by one.  If a cursor was
    positioned to record number 4 before the deletion, it will refer to
    the new record number 4, if any such record exists, after the
    deletion.  If a cursor was positioned after record number 4 before
    the deletion, it will be shifted downward one logical record,
    continuing to refer to the same record as it did before.
    <p>
    Creating new records will cause the creation of multiple records if
    the record number is more than one greater than the largest record
    currently in the database.  For example, creating record 28, when
    record 25 was previously the last record in the database, will
    create records 26 and 27 as well as 28.  Attempts to retrieve
    records that were created in this manner will result in an error
    return of {@link com.sleepycat.db.OperationStatus#KEYEMPTY OperationStatus.KEYEMPTY}.
    <p>
    If a created record is not at the end of the database, all records
    following the new record will be automatically renumbered upward by one.
    For example, the creation of a new record numbered 8 causes records
    numbered 8 and greater to be renumbered upward by one.  If a cursor was
    positioned to record number 8 or greater before the insertion, it will
    be shifted upward one logical record, continuing to refer to the same
