<h3><pre>
import com.sleepycat.db.*;
<p>
public int sync(int flags)
throws DbException;
</pre></h3>
<h1>Description</h1>
<p>The Db.sync method flushes any cached information to disk.
<p>If the database is in memory only, the Db.sync method has no effect and
will always succeed.
<p>The <b>flags</b> parameter is currently unused, and must be set to 0.
<p>See <a href="../api_java/db_close.html">Db.close</a> for a discussion of Berkeley DB and cached data.
<p>The Db.sync method throws an exception that encapsulates a non-zero error value on
failure, and returns <a href="../api_c/memp_fsync.html#DB_INCOMPLETE">Db.DB_INCOMPLETE</a> if the underlying database still has
dirty pages in the cache. (The only reason to return
<a href="../api_c/memp_fsync.html#DB_INCOMPLETE">Db.DB_INCOMPLETE</a> is if another thread of control was writing pages
in the underlying database file at the same time as the
Db.sync method was being called. For this reason, a return of
<a href="../api_c/memp_fsync.html#DB_INCOMPLETE">Db.DB_INCOMPLETE</a> can normally be ignored, or, in cases where it is
a possible return value, there may be no reason to call
Db.sync.)
<h1>Errors</h1>
<p>The Db.sync method may fail and throw an exception encapsulating a non-zero error for the following conditions:
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt>EINVAL<dd>An invalid flag value or parameter was specified.
</dl>
<p>The Db.sync method may fail and throw an exception for errors specified for other Berkeley DB and C library or system methods.
If a catastrophic error has occurred, the Db.sync method may fail and throw
a <a href="../api_java/runrec_class.html">DbRunRecoveryException</a>, in which case all subsequent Berkeley DB calls
will fail in the same way.
