37      <p>
38                Our example program is a fairly simple transactional
39                application. At this early stage of its development, the
40                application contains no hint that it must be network-aware
41                so the only command line argument that it takes is one that
42                allows us to specify the environment home directory.
43                (Eventually, we will specify things like host names and
44                ports from the command line).
45            </p>
46      <p>
47                Note that the application performs all writes under the
48                protection of a transaction; however, multiple database
49                operations are not performed per transaction. Consequently,
50                we simplify things a bit by using autocommit for our 
51                database writes.
52            </p>
53      <p>
54                Also, this application is single-threaded. It is possible
55                to write a multi-threaded or multi-process application that 
56                performs replication. That said, the concepts described in
57                this book are applicable to both single threaded and
58                multi-threaded applications so nothing
59                is gained by multi-threading this application other than
60                distracting complexity. This manual
61                does, however, identify where care must be taken when
62                performing replication with a non-single threaded
63                application.
64            </p>
65      <p>
66                Finally, remember that transaction processing is not described in
67                this manual. Rather, see the 
68                <i class="citetitle">Berkeley DB Getting Started with Transaction Processing</i> guide for details on 
69                that topic.

84                            Before we begin, we present a 
85                            class that we will use to maintain useful
86                            information for us. Under normal circumstances,
87                            this class would not be necessary for a simple
88                            transactional example such as this. However, this code will
89                            grow into a replicated example that needs to
90                            track a lot more information for the
91                            application, and so we lay the groundwork for
92                            it here.
93                    </p>
94        <p>
95                            The class that we create is called
96                            
97                            <tt class="classname">RepConfig</tt>
98                            and its only purpose at this time is to track
99                            the location of our environment home directory.

141                            First, we provide the package declaration and

143                            needs.

205                            method, we can jump directly into our

207                            method. This method begins by instantiating a
208                            <tt class="classname">RepConfig</tt> object, and
209                            then collecting the command line arguments so
210                            that it can populate the object with the
211                            appropriate data (just the environment home
212                            directory, at this time):
213                    </p>
214        <pre class="programlisting">    public static void main(String[] argv)

219        for (int i = 0; i &lt; argv.length; i++)
220        {

228            }
229        }  </pre>
230        <p>
231        And then perform a little sanity checking on the command line
232        input:
233</p>
234        <pre class="programlisting">        // Error check command line.

238            Now we perform the class' work. To begin, we initialize the
239            object. The <tt class="methodname">init()</tt> method actually
240            opens our environment for us (shown in the next section).

242        <pre class="programlisting">        SimpleTxn runner = null;

245            runner.init(config);  </pre>
246        <p>
247            And then we call our <tt class="methodname">doloop()</tt>
248            method. This method is where we perform all our database
249            activity. See <a href="simpleprogramlisting.html#doloop_java">Method: SimpleTxn.doloop()</a>
250            for it's details.
251    </p>

253        <p>
254            And then, finally terminate the application (which closes our
255            environment handle) and end the method.

279                        For readers familiar with writing transactional
280                        DB applications, there should be no surprises
281                        here. However, we will be adding to this in later
282                        chapters as we roll replication into this example.
283                </p>
284        <p>
285        The only thing worth noting in this method here is that 
286        we relax our transactional durability guarantee for this application.
287        We do this because the application will eventually be replicated and
288        so we don't need a high durability guarantee.

320        Finally, we present the <tt class="methodname">SimpleTxn.terminate()</tt>

349                            To display the database, simply enter

352        <p>
353                        To begin, we declare a database pointer:

359        <p>
360                    Next, we begin the loop and we immediately open our
361                    database if it has not already been opened. 
362                </p>

383            }  </pre>
384        <p>
385            Now we implement our command prompt. This is a simple and not
386            very robust implementation of a command prompt.
387            If the user enters the keywords <tt class="literal">exit</tt>
388            or <tt class="literal">quit</tt>, the loop is exited and the
389            application ends. If the user enters nothing and instead simply
390            presses <tt class="literal">return</tt>, the entire contents of the
391            database is displayed. We use our
392            <tt class="methodname">printStocks()</tt> method to display the
393            database. (That implementation is shown next in this chapter.)
394        </p>
395        <p>
396           Notice that very little error checking is performed on the data
397           entered at this prompt.  If the user fails to enter at least one 
398            space in the value string, a simple help message is printed and
399            the prompt is returned to the user. That is the only error
400            checking performed here. In a real-world application,
401            at a minimum the application would probably check to ensure
402            that the price was in fact an integer or float value. 
403            However, in order to keep this example code as simple as
404            possible, we refrain from implementing a thorough user interface.

443                Now we assign data to the <tt class="classname">DatabaseEntry</tt> 
444                classes that we will use to write the new information to the database.
445            </p>
446        <pre class="programlisting">            DatabaseEntry key =

449                    new DatabaseEntry(words[1].getBytes("UTF-8"));  </pre>
450        <p>
451                Having done that, we can write the new information to the
452                database. Remember that because a transaction handle is not
453                explicitly used, but we did open the database such that it
454                supports transactions, then autocommit is automatically
455                used for this database write.
456            </p>
457        <p>
458                    Autocommit is described in the 
459                    <i class="citetitle">Berkeley DB Getting Started with Transaction Processing</i> guide.
460                </p>
461        <p>
462                Also, the database is not configured for duplicate records, so
463                the data portion of a record is overwritten if the provided
464                key already exists in the database. However, in this case
465                DB returns <tt class="methodname">OperationStatus.KEYEXIST</tt> — which
466                we ignore.

497                        simply takes a database handle, opens a cursor, and uses

499                        This is trivial cursor operation that should hold
