31<b>Description: DbEnv::set_lg_regionmax</b>
32<p>Set the size of the underlying logging area of the Berkeley DB environment,
33in bytes.  By default, or if the value is set to 0, the default size is
34approximately 60KB.  The log region is used to store filenames, and so
35may need to be increased in size if a large number of files will be
36opened and registered with the specified Berkeley DB environment's log
37manager.</p>
38<p>The database environment's log region size may also be configured using the
39environment's <a href="../ref/env/db_config.html#DB_CONFIG">DB_CONFIG</a> file.  The syntax of the entry in that
40file is a single line with the string "set_lg_regionmax", one or more whitespace
41characters, and the size in bytes.
42Because the <a href="../ref/env/db_config.html#DB_CONFIG">DB_CONFIG</a> file is read when the database environment
43is opened, it will silently overrule configuration done before that
44time.</p>
45<p>The DbEnv::set_lg_regionmax method configures a database environment, not only operations
46performed using the specified <a href="../api_cxx/env_class.html">DbEnv</a> handle.</p>
47<p>The DbEnv::set_lg_regionmax method may not be called after the <a href="../api_cxx/env_open.html">DbEnv::open</a> method is
48called.
49If the database environment already exists when
50<a href="../api_cxx/env_open.html">DbEnv::open</a> is called, the information specified to DbEnv::set_lg_regionmax
51will be ignored.
52</p>
53<p>The DbEnv::set_lg_regionmax method
54either returns a non-zero error value
55or throws an exception that encapsulates a non-zero error value on
56failure, and returns 0 on success.
57</p>
58<b>Parameters</b> <br>
59 <b>lg_regionmax</b><ul compact><li>The <b>lg_regionmax</b> parameter is the size of the logging area in
60the Berkeley DB environment, in bytes.</ul>
61<br>
62<br><b>Errors</b>
63<p>The DbEnv::set_lg_regionmax method
64may fail and throw
65<a href="../api_cxx/except_class.html">DbException</a>,
66encapsulating one of the following non-zero errors, or return one of
67the following non-zero errors:</p>
68<br>
69<b>EINVAL</b><ul compact><li>If the method was called after <a href="../api_cxx/env_open.html">DbEnv::open</a> was called; or if an
70invalid flag value or parameter was specified.</ul>
71<br>
72<hr size=1 noshade>
73<b>Description: DbEnv::get_lg_regionmax</b>
74<p>The DbEnv::get_lg_regionmax method returns the size of the underlying logging subsystem region.</p>
75<p>The DbEnv::get_lg_regionmax method may be called at any time during the life of the
76application.</p>
77<p>The DbEnv::get_lg_regionmax method
78either returns a non-zero error value
79or throws an exception that encapsulates a non-zero error value on
80failure, and returns 0 on success.

82<b>Parameters</b> <br>
83 <b>lg_regionmaxp</b><ul compact><li>The DbEnv::get_lg_regionmax method returns  the
