Error returns

Most functions and methods in WiredTiger return an integer code indicating whether the operation succeeded or failed. A return of zero indicates success, all non-zero return values indicate some kind of failure.

WiredTiger reserves all values from -31,800 to -31,999 as possible error return values. WiredTiger may also return C99/POSIX error codes such as ENOMEM, EINVAL and ENOTSUP, with the usual meanings.

The following are all of the WiredTiger-specific error returns:

#define WT_ROLLBACK
 Conflict between concurrent operations. More...
 
#define WT_DUPLICATE_KEY
 Attempt to insert an existing key. More...
 
#define WT_ERROR
 Non-specific WiredTiger error. More...

Detailed Description

The functions, handles and methods applications use to access and manage data with WiredTiger.


Class Documentation

◆ WT_ITEM

struct WT_ITEM

A raw item of data to be managed, including a pointer to the data and a length.

WT_ITEM structures do not need to be cleared before use.

Examples:
ex_async.c, ex_encrypt.c, ex_extending.c, ex_extractor.c, ex_log.c, and ex_schema.c.
Class Members
const void * data The memory reference of the data item.

For items returned by a WT_CURSOR, the pointer is only valid until the next operation on that cursor. Applications that need to keep an item across multiple cursor operations must make a copy.

size_t size The number of bytes in the data item.

The maximum length of a single column stored in a table is not fixed (as it partially depends on the underlying file configuration), but is always a small number of bytes less than 4GB.

Macro Definition Documentation

◆ WT_CACHE_FULL

#define WT_CACHE_FULL

Operation would overflow cache.

This error is only generated when wiredtiger_open is configured to run in- memory, and an insert or update operation requires more than the configured cache size to complete. The operation may be retried; if a transaction is in progress, it should be rolled back and the operation retried in a new transaction.

◆ WT_DUPLICATE_KEY

#define WT_DUPLICATE_KEY

Attempt to insert an existing key.

This error is generated when the application attempts to insert a record with the same key as an existing record without the 'overwrite' configuration to WT_SESSION::open_cursor.

◆ WT_ERROR

#define WT_ERROR

Non-specific WiredTiger error.

This error is returned when an error is not covered by a specific error return.

◆ WT_INTPACK32_MAXSIZE

#define WT_INTPACK32_MAXSIZE

The maximum packed size of a 32-bit integer.

The wiredtiger_struct_pack function will pack single integers into at most this many bytes.

◆ WT_INTPACK64_MAXSIZE

#define WT_INTPACK64_MAXSIZE

The maximum packed size of a 64-bit integer.

The wiredtiger_struct_pack function will pack single long integers into at most this many bytes.

◆ WT_NOTFOUND

#define WT_NOTFOUND

Item not found.

This error indicates an operation did not find a value to return. This includes cursor search and other operations where no record matched the cursor's search key such as WT_CURSOR::update or WT_CURSOR::remove.

Examples:
ex_encrypt.c, ex_file_system.c, ex_log.c, ex_stat.c, ex_thread.c, and rotn_encrypt.c.

◆ WT_PANIC

#define WT_PANIC

WiredTiger library panic.

This error indicates an underlying problem that requires the application exit and restart. The application can exit immediately when WT_PANIC is returned from a WiredTiger interface, no further WiredTiger calls are required.

◆ WT_ROLLBACK

#define WT_ROLLBACK

Conflict between concurrent operations.

This error is generated when an operation cannot be completed due to a conflict with concurrent operations. The operation may be retried; if a transaction is in progress, it should be rolled back and the operation retried in a new transaction.

◆ WT_RUN_RECOVERY

#define WT_RUN_RECOVERY

Recovery must be run to continue.

This error is generated when wiredtiger_open is configured to return an error if recovery is required to use the database.

Typedef Documentation

◆ WT_PACK_STREAM

typedef struct __wt_pack_stream WT_PACK_STREAM

Streaming interface to packing.

This allows applications to pack or unpack records one field at a time. This is an opaque handle returned by wiredtiger_pack_start or wiredtiger_unpack_start. It must be closed with wiredtiger_pack_close.

Enumeration Type Documentation

◆ WT_ASYNC_OPTYPE

Asynchronous operation types.

Enumerator
WT_AOP_NONE 

No operation type set.

WT_AOP_COMPACT 

WT_ASYNC_OP::compact.

WT_AOP_INSERT 

WT_ASYNC_OP::insert.

WT_AOP_REMOVE 

WT_ASYNC_OP::remove.

WT_AOP_SEARCH 

WT_ASYNC_OP::search.

WT_AOP_UPDATE 

WT_ASYNC_OP::update.

Function Documentation

◆ wiredtiger_config_parser_open()

int wiredtiger_config_parser_open ( WT_SESSION session,
const char *  config,
size_t  len,
WT_CONFIG_PARSER **  config_parserp 
)

Create a handle that can be used to parse or create configuration strings compatible with WiredTiger APIs.

This API is outside the scope of a WiredTiger connection handle, since applications may need to generate configuration strings prior to calling wiredtiger_open.

Parameters
sessionthe session handle to be used for error reporting (if NULL, error messages will be written to stderr).
configthe configuration string being parsed. The string must remain valid for the lifetime of the parser handle.
lenthe number of valid bytes in config
[out]config_parserpA pointer to the newly opened handle
Returns
zero on success and a non-zero error code on failure. See Error Returns for details.
const char *config_string =
"path=/dev/loop,page_size=1024,log=(archive=true,file_max=20MB)";
NULL, config_string, strlen(config_string), &parser)) != 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "Error creating configuration parser: %s\n",
return (EXIT_FAILURE);
}
if ((ret = parser->close(parser)) != 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "Error closing configuration parser: %s\n",
return (EXIT_FAILURE);
}

◆ wiredtiger_open()

int wiredtiger_open ( const char *  home,
WT_EVENT_HANDLER errhandler,
const char *  config,
WT_CONNECTION **  connectionp 
)

Open a connection to a database.

ret = wiredtiger_open(home, NULL,
"create,cache_size=5GB,log=(enabled,recover=on)", &conn);
Parameters
homeThe path to the database home directory. See Database Home Directory for more information.
errhandlerAn error handler. If NULL, a builtin error handler is installed that writes error messages to stderr. See Error handling using the WT_EVENT_HANDLER for more information.
configConfiguration string, see Configuration Strings. Permitted values:
NameEffectValues
async = (asynchronous operations configuration options.a set of related configuration options defined below.
    enabledenable asynchronous operation.a boolean flag; default false.
    ops_maxmaximum number of expected simultaneous asynchronous operations.an integer between 1 and 4096; default 1024.
    threadsthe number of worker threads to service asynchronous requests. Each worker thread uses a session from the configured session_max.an integer between 1 and 20; default 2.
)
buffer_alignmentin-memory alignment (in bytes) for buffers used for I/O. The default value of -1 indicates a platform-specific alignment value should be used (4KB on Linux systems when direct I/O is configured, zero elsewhere).an integer between -1 and 1MB; default -1.
builtin_extension_configA structure where the keys are the names of builtin extensions and the values are passed to WT_CONNECTION::load_extension as the config parameter (for example, builtin_extension_config={zlib={compression_level=3}}).a string; default empty.
cache_overheadassume the heap allocator overhead is the specified percentage, and adjust the cache usage by that amount (for example, if there is 10GB of data in cache, a percentage of 10 means WiredTiger treats this as 11GB). This value is configurable because different heap allocators have different overhead and different workloads will have different heap allocation sizes and patterns, therefore applications may need to adjust this value based on allocator choice and behavior in measured workloads.an integer between 0 and 30; default 8.
cache_sizemaximum heap memory to allocate for the cache. A database should configure either cache_size or shared_cache but not both.an integer between 1MB and 10TB; default 100MB.
checkpoint = (periodically checkpoint the database. Enabling the checkpoint server uses a session from the configured session_max.a set of related configuration options defined below.
    log_sizewait for this amount of log record bytes to be written to the log between each checkpoint. If non-zero, this value will use a minimum of the log file size. A database can configure both log_size and wait to set an upper bound for checkpoints; setting this value above 0 configures periodic checkpoints.an integer between 0 and 2GB; default 0.
    waitseconds to wait between each checkpoint; setting this value above 0 configures periodic checkpoints.an integer between 0 and 100000; default 0.
)
checkpoint_syncflush files to stable storage when closing or writing checkpoints.a boolean flag; default true.
config_basewrite the base configuration file if creating the database. If false in the config passed directly to wiredtiger_open, will ignore any existing base configuration file in addition to not creating one. See WiredTiger.basecfg file for more information.a boolean flag; default true.
createcreate the database if it does not exist.a boolean flag; default false.
direct_ioUse O_DIRECT on POSIX systems, and FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING on Windows to access files. Options are given as a list, such as "direct_io=[data]". Configuring direct_io requires care, see Direct I/O for important warnings. Including "data" will cause WiredTiger data files to use direct I/O, including "log" will cause WiredTiger log files to use direct I/O, and including "checkpoint" will cause WiredTiger data files opened at a checkpoint (i.e: read only) to use direct I/O. direct_io should be combined with write_through to get the equivalent of O_DIRECT on Windows.a list, with values chosen from the following options: "checkpoint", "data", "log"; default empty.
encryption = (configure an encryptor for system wide metadata and logs. If a system wide encryptor is set, it is also used for encrypting data files and tables, unless encryption configuration is explicitly set for them when they are created with WT_SESSION::create.a set of related configuration options defined below.

write_throughUse FILE_FLAG_WRITE_THROUGH on Windows to write to files. Ignored on non-Windows systems. Options are given as a list, such as "write_through=[data]". Configuring write_through requires care, see Direct I/O for important warnings. Including "data" will cause WiredTiger data files to write through cache, including "log" will cause WiredTiger log files to write through cache. write_through should be combined with direct_io to get the equivalent of POSIX O_DIRECT on Windows.a list, with values chosen from the following options: "data", "log"; default empty.
Additionally, if files named WiredTiger.config or WiredTiger.basecfg appear in the WiredTiger home directory, they are read for configuration values (see WiredTiger.config file and WiredTiger.basecfg file for details). See Configuration ordering for ordering of the configuration mechanisms.

)

Pack a structure into a buffer.

See Packing and Unpacking Data for a description of the permitted format strings.

Packing Examples

For example, the string "iSh" will pack a 32-bit integer followed by a NUL-terminated string, followed by a 16-bit integer. The default, big-endian encoding will be used, with no alignment. This could be used in C as follows:

char buf[100];
session, buf, sizeof(buf), "iSh", 42, "hello", -3);

Then later, the values can be unpacked as follows:

int i;
char *s;
short h;
session, buf, sizeof(buf), "iSh", &i, &s, &h);
Parameters
sessionthe session handle
buffera pointer to a packed byte array
sizethe number of valid bytes in the buffer
formatthe data format, see Packing and Unpacking Data
Returns
zero on success and a non-zero error code on failure. See Error Returns for details.
Examples:
ex_pack.c.

◆ wiredtiger_struct_size()

Note that for variable-sized fields including variable-sized strings and integers, the calculated sized merely reflects the expected sizes specified in the format string itself.

size_t size;
ret = wiredtiger_struct_size(session, &size, "iSh", 42, "hello", -3);
Parameters
sessionthe session handle
sizepa location where the number of bytes needed for the matching call to wiredtiger_struct_pack is returned
