Normally when a DB transaction is blocked on a lock request, it
|
||
must wait until the requested lock becomes available before its
|
||
thread-of-control can proceed. However, it is possible to configure a
|
||
transaction handle such that it will report a deadlock rather
|
||
than wait for the block to clear.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
You do this on a transaction by transaction basis by specifying
|
||
|
||
<span>
|
||
<tt class="literal">DB_TXN_NOWAIT</tt>
|
||
to the
|
||
<tt class="methodname">DB_ENV->txn_begin()</tt>
|
||
|
||
|
||
method.
|
||
</span>
|
||
|
||
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
For example:
|
||
</p>
|
||
<pre class="programlisting"> /* Get the transaction */
|
||
DB_TXN *txn = NULL;
|
||
ret = envp->txn_begin(envp, NULL, &txn, DB_TXN_NOWAIT);
|
||
if (ret != 0) {
|
||
envp->err(envp, ret, "txn_begin failed");
|
||
return (EXIT_FAILURE);
|
||
}
|
||
....
|
||
/* Deadlock detection and exception handling omitted for brevity. */</pre>
