If true, allocate region memory from the heap instead of from memory backed by the filesystem or system shared memory.

Namespace: BerkeleyDB
Assembly: libdb_dotnet48 (in libdb_dotnet48.dll) Version: 4.8.24.0

# Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)
    Public Private As Boolean

Visual C++
    public:
    bool Private

# Remarks

This setting implies the environment will only be accessed by a single process (although that process may be multithreaded). This flag has two effects on the Berkeley DB environment. First, all underlying data structures are allocated from per-process memory instead of from shared memory that is accessible to more than a single process. Second, mutexes are only configured to work between threads.

This setting should be false if more than a single process is accessing the environment because it is likely to cause database corruption and unpredictable behavior. For example, if both a server application and Berkeley DB utilities (for example, db_archive, db_checkpoint or db_stat) are expected to access the environment, this setting should be false.
