A database cursor is a sequential pointer to the database entries. It allows traversal of the database and access to duplicate keyed entries. Cursors are used for operating on collections of records, for iterating over a database, and for saving handles to individual records, so that they can be modified after they have been read.

Discards the cursor.

Return the count of duplicate

same than count

Same than get(BDB::CURRENT)

same than current

Deletes the key/data pair currently referenced by the cursor.

same than del

same than del

Creates new cursor that uses the same transaction and locker ID as the original cursor. This is useful when an application is using locking and requires two or more cursors in the same thread of control.

flags can have the value BDB::DB_POSITION, in this case the newly created cursor is initialized to reference the same position in the database as the original cursor and hold the same locks.

Retrieve key/data pair from the database

See the description of c_get in the Berkeley distribution for the different values of the flags parameter.

key must be given if the flags parameter is BDB::SET | BDB::SET_RANGE | BDB::SET_RECNO

key and value must be specified for BDB::GET_BOTH

Stores data value into the database.

See the description of c_put in the Berkeley distribution for the different values of the flags parameter.

same than put

Stores key/data pairs into the database (only for Btree and Hash access methods)

flags must have the value BDB::KEYFIRST or BDB::KEYLAST
