    #include <db.h>

    int
    db_env_set_panicstate(int panic);

# Description

Toggle the Berkeley DB panic state. Setting panic to a non-zero value causes Berkeley DB to refuse attempts to call Berkeley DB functions with the DB_RUNRECOVERY error return.

The db_env_set_panicstate interface affects the entire application, not a single database or database environment.

While the db_env_set_panicstate interface may be used to configure Berkeley DB at any time during the life of the application, it should normally be called before making any calls to the db_env_create or db_create functions.

The db_env_set_panicstate function returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.

# Errors

EINVAL
  An invalid flag value or parameter was specified.
