<p>
<h1 align=center>Opening the environment</h1>
<p>Creating transaction-protected applications using the Berkeley DB library is
quite easy. Applications first use <a href="../../api_c/env_open.html">DBENV->open</a> to initialize
the database environment. Transaction-protected applications normally
require all four Berkeley DB subsystems, so the <a href="../../api_c/env_open.html#DB_INIT_MPOOL">DB_INIT_MPOOL</a>,
<a href="../../api_c/env_open.html#DB_INIT_LOCK">DB_INIT_LOCK</a>, <a href="../../api_c/env_open.html#DB_INIT_LOG">DB_INIT_LOG</a> and <a href="../../api_c/env_open.html#DB_INIT_TXN">DB_INIT_TXN</a> flags
should be specified.
<p>Once the application has called <a href="../../api_c/env_open.html">DBENV->open</a>, it opens its
databases within the environment. Once the databases are opened, the
application makes changes to the databases inside of transactions. Each
set of changes that entail a unit of work should be surrounded by the
appropriate <a href="../../api_c/txn_begin.html">txn_begin</a>, <a href="../../api_c/txn_commit.html">txn_commit</a> and <a href="../../api_c/txn_abort.html">txn_abort</a>
calls. The Berkeley DB access methods will make the appropriate calls into
the lock, log and memory pool subsystems in order to guarantee
transaction semantics. When the application is ready to exit, all
outstanding transactions should have been committed or aborted.
<p>Databases accessed by a transaction must not be closed during the
transaction. Once all outstanding transactions are finished, all open
Berkeley DB files should be closed. When the Berkeley DB database files have been
closed, the environment should be closed by calling <a href="../../api_c/env_close.html">DBENV->close</a>.
<p>The following code fragment creates the database environment directory,
then opens the environment, running recovery. Our DB_ENV
database environment handle is declared to be free-threaded using the
<a href="../../api_c/env_open.html#DB_THREAD">DB_THREAD</a> flag, and so may be used by any number of threads that
we may subsequently create.
