Retrieving Btree records by logical record number
The Btree access method optionally supports retrieval by logical record
numbers. To configure a Btree to support record numbers, call the
<a href="../../api_c/db_set_flags.html">DB-&gt;set_flags</a> method with the <a href="../../api_c/db_set_flags.html#DB_RECNUM">DB_RECNUM</a> flag.
Configuring a Btree for record numbers should not be done lightly.
While often useful, it may significantly slow down the speed at which
items can be stored into the database, and can severely impact
application throughput. Generally it should be avoided in trees with
a need for high write concurrency.
To retrieve by record number, use the <a href="../../api_c/db_get.html#DB_SET_RECNO">DB_SET_RECNO</a> flag to the
<a href="../../api_c/db_get.html">DB-&gt;get</a> and <a href="../../api_c/dbc_get.html">DBcursor-&gt;get</a> methods. The following is an example of
a routine that displays the data item for a Btree database created with
the <a href="../../api_c/db_set_flags.html#DB_RECNUM">DB_RECNUM</a> option.
<blockquote><pre>int
rec_display(dbp, recno)
	DB *dbp;
	db_recno_t recno;
{
	DBT key, data;
	int ret;

	memset(&key, 0, sizeof(key));
	key.data = &recno;
	key.size = sizeof(recno);
	memset(&data, 0, sizeof(data));

	if ((ret = dbp-&gt;get(dbp, NULL, &key, &data, DB_SET_RECNO)) != 0)
		return (ret);
	printf("data for %lu: %.*s\n",
	 (u_long)recno, (int)data.size, (char *)data.data);
	return (0);
}</pre></blockquote>
To determine a key's record number, use the <a href="../../api_c/dbc_get.html#DB_GET_RECNO">DB_GET_RECNO</a> flag
to the <a href="../../api_c/dbc_get.html">DBcursor-&gt;get</a> method. The following is an example of a routine that
displays the record number associated with a specific key.
<blockquote><pre>int
recno_display(dbp, keyvalue)
	DB *dbp;
	char *keyvalue;
{
	DBC *dbcp;
	DBT key, data;
	db_recno_t recno;
	int ret, t_ret;

	/* Acquire a cursor for the database. */
	if ((ret = dbp-&gt;cursor(dbp, NULL, &dbcp, 0)) != 0) {
		dbp-&gt;err(dbp, ret, "DB-&gt;cursor");
		goto err;
	}

	/* Position the cursor. */
	memset(&key, 0, sizeof(key));
	key.data = keyvalue;
	key.size = strlen(keyvalue);
	memset(&data, 0, sizeof(data));
	if ((ret = dbcp-&gt;c_get(dbcp, &key, &data, DB_SET)) != 0) {
		dbp-&gt;err(dbp, ret, "DBC-&gt;c_get(DB_SET): %s", keyvalue);
		goto err;
	}

	/*
	 * Request the record number, and store it into appropriately
	 * sized and aligned local memory.
	 */
	memset(&data, 0, sizeof(data));
	data.data = &recno;
	data.ulen = sizeof(recno);
	data.flags = DB_DBT_USERMEM;
	if ((ret = dbcp-&gt;c_get(dbcp, &key, &data, DB_GET_RECNO)) != 0) {
		dbp-&gt;err(dbp, ret, "DBC-&gt;c_get(DB_GET_RECNO)");
		goto err;
	}

	printf("key for requested key was %lu\n", (u_long)recno);

err:	/* Close the cursor. */
	if ((t_ret = dbcp-&gt;c_close(dbcp)) != 0) {
		if (ret == 0)
			ret = t_ret;
		dbp-&gt;err(dbp, ret, "DBC-&gt;close");
	}
	return (ret);
}</pre></blockquote>
