Field Detail

PANIC

public static final EventType PANIC

The event is a Database panic.

Errors can occur in the Berkeley DB library where the only solution is to shut down the application and run recovery (for example, if Berkeley DB is unable to allocate heap memory). In such cases, the Berkeley DB methods will return DB_RUNRECOVERY. It is often easier to simply exit the application when such errors occur rather than gracefully return up the stack.

When event is set to DB_EVENT_PANIC, the database environment has failed. All threads of control in the database environment should exit the environment, and recovery should be run.

REP_CLIENT

public static final EventType REP_CLIENT

The event is a replication client message, meaning that the current site is now a client in the replication group.

REP_MASTER

public static final EventType REP_MASTER

The event is a replication master message, meaning that the current site is now the master in the replication group.

REP_NEW_MASTER

public static final EventType REP_NEW_MASTER

The event is a replication new master message.

The replication group of which this site is a member has just established a new master; the local site is not the new master.

The DB_EVENT_REP_NEWMASTER event is provided only to applications using the replication manager support.
