.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
The
|
||
|
.Nm cdbw
|
||
|
functions are used to create a constant databases for use with
|
||
|
.Xr cdbr 3 .
|
||
|
Details about the file format, including overhead and limitations,
|
||
|
can be found in
|
||
|
.Xr cdb 5 .
|
||
|
.Pp
|
||
|
.Fn cdbw_open
|
||
|
prepares a new
|
||
|
.Nm cdb
|
||
|
writer.
|
||
|
The function returns a handle to pass to the other functions.
|
||
|
.Pp
|
||
|
.Fn cdbw_close
|
||
|
frees all resources associated with the handle.
|
||
|
.Pp
|
||
|
.Fn cdbw_put
|
||
|
adds the given (key,value) pair after checking for a duplicate key.
|
||
|
.Fn cdbw_put_data
|
||
|
adds the given value to the writer without adding a key reference.
|
||
|
The returned index can be used in subsequent calls to
|
||
|
.Fn cdbw_put_key
|
||
|
to add one or more keys pointing to this value.
|
||
|
.Fn cdbw_put_key
|
||
|
checks for duplicate keys and valid index arguments.
|
||
|
On success it adds the given key.
|
||
|
.Pp
|
||
|
.Fn cdbw_output
|
||
|
computes the database file and writes it to the given descriptor.
|
||
|
The function returns an error if the file cannot be written correctly.
|
||
|
The
|
||
|
.Fn descr
|
||
|
parameter provides a human readable description of the database content.
|
||
|
The
|
||
|
.Fn seedgen
|
||
|
parameter can be used to override the default PRNG.
|
||
|
The function should return a different value for each invokation.
|
||
|
The bitwise layout of the output depends on the chosen seed.
