Detailed Description

The interface implemented by applications to provide custom extraction of index keys or column group values.

Applications register implementations with WiredTiger by calling WT_CONNECTION::add_extractor.

        static WT_EXTRACTOR my_extractor = {my_extract};

        ret = conn->add_extractor(conn, "my_extractor", &my_extractor, NULL);
