# DbEnv::set_lk_conflicts

###

    #include <db_cxx.h>

    int
    DbEnv::set_lk_conflicts(u_int8_t *conflicts, int nmodes);

# Description

Set the locking conflicts matrix. The conflicts argument is an nmodes by nmodes array. A non-0 value for the array element indicates that requested_mode and held_mode conflict:

>     conflicts[requested_mode][held_mode]

The not-granted mode must be represented by 0.

If DbEnv::set_lk_conflicts is never called, a standard conflicts array is used; see Standard Lock Modes for more information.

The DbEnv::set_lk_conflicts method configures a database environment, not only operations performed using the specified DbEnv handle.

The DbEnv::set_lk_conflicts interface may not be called after the DbEnv::open interface is called. If the database environment already exists when DbEnv::open is called, the information specified to DbEnv::set_lk_conflicts will be ignored.

The DbEnv::set_lk_conflicts method either returns a non-zero error value or throws an exception that encapsulates a non-zero error value on failure, and returns 0 on success.

# Errors

The DbEnv::set_lk_conflicts method may fail and throw an exception or return a non-zero error for the following conditions:

EINVAL
  An invalid flag value or parameter was specified.

  Called after DbEnv::open was called.

ENOMEM
  No memory was available to copy the conflicts array.

The DbEnv::set_lk_conflicts method may fail and throw an exception or return a non-zero error for errors specified for other Berkeley DB and C library or system methods. If a catastrophic error has occurred, the DbEnv::set_lk_conflicts method may fail and either return DB_RUNRECOVERY or throw a DbRunRecoveryException, in which case all subsequent Berkeley DB calls will fail in the same way.
