For the same reason, the +application will always specify a transaction argument of NULL to the +Berkeley DB functions that take transaction arguments (e.g., <a href="../../api_c/db_put.html">DB->put</a> or +<a href="../../api_c/db_cursor.html">DB->cursor</a>). +</ol> +<p>Otherwise, your application should be unchanged. +<hr size=1 noshade> +<p><li><b>Is it possible to mix XA and non-XA transactions?</b> +<p>Yes.

This includes any non-XA transactions that were +performed in the environment. Of course, this means that you can't use +the standard Berkeley DB utilities (e.g., <a href="../../utility/db_recover.html">db_recover</a>) to perform +recovery. +<p>Also, standard log file archival and catastrophic recovery procedures +should occur independently of XA operation. +</ol> +<table><tr><td><br></td><td width="1%"><a href="../../ref/xa/config.html"><img src="../../images/prev.gif" alt="Prev"></a><a href="../../ref/toc.html"><img src="../../images/ref.gif" alt="Ref"></a><a href="../../ref/program/appsignals.html"><img src="../../images/next.gif" alt="Next"></a> +</td></tr></table> +<p><font size=1><a href="http://www.sleepycat.com">Copyright Sleepycat Software</a></font> +</body> +</html> |
