33<b>Description: DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;set_maxsize</b>
34<p>Set the maximum size for the file to be <b>gbytes</b> gigabytes plus
35<b>bytes</b>.  Attempts to allocate new pages in the file after the
36limit has been reached will fail.</p>
37<p>To set the maximum file size for a particular database, call the
38DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;set_maxsize method using the <a href="../api_c/mempfile_class.html">DB_MPOOLFILE</a> handle stored
39in the <b>mpf</b> field of the <a href="../api_c/db_class.html">DB</a> handle.  Attempts to insert
40new items into the database after the limit has been reached may fail.</p>
41<p>The DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;set_maxsize method configures a file in the memory pool, not only
42operations performed using the specified <a href="../api_c/mempfile_class.html">DB_MPOOLFILE</a> handle.</p>
43<p>The DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;set_maxsize method may be called at any time during the life of the
44application.</p>
45<p>The DB_MPOOLFILE-&gt;set_maxsize method
46returns a non-zero error value on failure
47and 0 on success.
