Class LogCursor

java.lang.Object
  com.sleepycat.db.LogCursor

public class LogCursor

extends Object

The LogCursor object is the handle for a cursor into the log files, supporting sequential access to the records stored in log files.

The handle is not free-threaded. Once the LogCursor.close method is called, the handle may not be accessed again, regardless of that method's success or failure.

Method Summary

void	close() Close the log cursor.
OperationStatus	getCurrent(LogSequenceNumber lsn, DatabaseEntry data) Return the LogSequenceNumber and log record to which the log cursor currently refers.
OperationStatus	getFirst(LogSequenceNumber lsn, DatabaseEntry data) Return the first LogSequenceNumber and log record.
OperationStatus	getLast(LogSequenceNumber lsn, DatabaseEntry data) Return the last LogSequenceNumber and log record.
OperationStatus	getNext(LogSequenceNumber lsn, DatabaseEntry data) Return the next LogSequenceNumber and log record.
OperationStatus	getPrev(LogSequenceNumber lsn, DatabaseEntry data) Return the previous LogSequenceNumber and log record.
OperationStatus	set(LogSequenceNumber lsn, DatabaseEntry data) Return a specific log record.

Method Detail

close

public void close()
           throws DatabaseException

Close the log cursor.

The log cursor may not be used again after this method has been called, regardless of the method's success or failure.

Throws:

DatabaseException - if a failure occurs.

getCurrent

public OperationStatus getCurrent(LogSequenceNumber lsn,
                                  DatabaseEntry data)
                           throws DatabaseException

Return the LogSequenceNumber and log record to which the log cursor currently refers.

Parameters:

lsn - The returned LogSequenceNumber.

data - The returned log record. The data field is set to the record retrieved, and the size field indicates the number of bytes in the record.

Returns:

The status of the operation.

Throws:

DatabaseException - if a failure occurs.

getNext

public OperationStatus getNext(LogSequenceNumber lsn,
                               DatabaseEntry data)
                        throws DatabaseException

Return the next LogSequenceNumber and log record.

The current log position is advanced to the next record in the log, and its LogSequenceNumber and data are returned. If the cursor has not been initialized, the first available log record in the log will be returned.

Parameters:

lsn - The returned LogSequenceNumber.

data - The returned log record.

Returns:

The status of the operation; a return of NOTFOUND indicates the last log record has already been returned or the log is empty.

Throws:

DatabaseException - if a failure occurs.

getFirst

public OperationStatus getFirst(LogSequenceNumber lsn,
                                DatabaseEntry data)
                         throws DatabaseException

Return the first LogSequenceNumber and log record.

The current log position is set to the first record in the log, and its LogSequenceNumber and data are returned.

Parameters:

lsn - The returned LogSequenceNumber.

data - The returned log record.

Returns:

The status of the operation; a return of NOTFOUND indicates the log is empty.

Throws:

DatabaseException - if a failure occurs.

getLast

public OperationStatus getLast(LogSequenceNumber lsn,
                               DatabaseEntry data)
                        throws DatabaseException

Return the last LogSequenceNumber and log record.

The current log position is set to the last record in the log, and its LogSequenceNumber and data are returned.

Parameters:

lsn - The returned LogSequenceNumber.

data - The returned log record.

Returns:

The status of the operation; a return of NOTFOUND indicates the log is empty.

Throws:

DatabaseException - if a failure occurs.

getPrev

public OperationStatus getPrev(LogSequenceNumber lsn,
                               DatabaseEntry data)
                        throws DatabaseException

Return the previous LogSequenceNumber and log record.

The current log position is advanced to the previous record in the log, and its LogSequenceNumber and data are returned. If the cursor has not been initialized, the last available log record in the log will be returned.

Parameters:

lsn - The returned LogSequenceNumber.

data - The returned log record.

Returns:

The status of the operation; a return of NOTFOUND indicates the first log record has already been returned or the log is empty.

Throws:

DatabaseException - if a failure occurs.

set

public OperationStatus set(LogSequenceNumber lsn,
                           DatabaseEntry data)
                    throws DatabaseException

Return a specific log record.

The current log position is set to the specified record in the log, and its data is returned.

Parameters:

lsn - The specified LogSequenceNumber.

data - The returned log record.

Returns:

The status of the operation.

Throws:

DatabaseException - if a failure occurs.
