<p>The DbEnv.log_put method appends records to the log. The <a href="../api_java/lsn_class.html">DbLsn</a> of
29
the put record is returned in the <b>lsn</b> argument. The <b>flags</b>
30
argument may be set to one of the following values:

<p><dt><a name="Db.DB_CHECKPOINT">Db.DB_CHECKPOINT</a><dd>The log should write a checkpoint record, recording any information
33
necessary to make the log structures recoverable after a crash.

37
that all records with <a href="../api_java/lsn_class.html">DbLsn</a> values less than or equal to the

<p>The caller is responsible for providing any necessary structure to
42
<b>data</b>. (For example, in a write-ahead logging protocol, the
43
application must understand what part of <b>data</b> is an operation
44
code, what part is redo information, and what part is undo information.

In addition, most transaction managers will store in <b>data</b> the

support chaining back through the transaction's log records during

<p>The DbEnv.log_put method may fail and throw an exception for errors specified for other Berkeley DB and C library or system methods.

If a catastrophic error has occurred, the DbEnv.log_put method may fail and throw
60
a <a href="../api_java/runrec_class.html">DbRunRecoveryException</a>, in which case all subsequent Berkeley DB calls

will fail in the same way.
