<h1>Description</h1>
 
28
<p>The Db.truncate interface empties the database, discarding all
 
29
records it contains.
 
30
The number of records discarded from the database is returned.
 
31
<p>If the operation is to be transaction-protected, the <b>txnid</b>
 
32
parameter is a transaction handle returned from <a href="../api_java/txn_begin.html">DbEnv.txn_begin</a>;
 
33
otherwise, null.
 
34
<p>The <b>flags</b> parameter is currently unused, and must be set to 0.
 
35
<p>The Db.truncate method throws an exception that encapsulates a non-zero error value on
 
36
failure.
 
37
<h1>Errors</h1>
 
38
<p>The Db.truncate method may fail and throw an exception for errors specified for other Berkeley DB and C library or system methods.
 
39
If a catastrophic error has occurred, the Db.truncate method may fail and throw
 
40
a <a href="../api_java/runrec_class.html">DbRunRecoveryException</a>, in which case all subsequent Berkeley DB calls
 
41
will fail in the same way.
