Welcome to Berkeley DB 11g Release 2 (DB). This document describes the C++ STL API for DB library version 11.2.5.3. It is intended to describe the DB API, including all classes, methods, and functions. As such, this document is intended for C++ developers who are actively writing or maintaining applications that make use of DB databases.
The following typographical conventions are used within in this manual:
        Class names are represented in monospaced font, as are method
        names. For example: 
        
        "Db::open() is a 
		Db class method."
    
Variable or non-literal text is presented in italics. For example: "Go to your DB_INSTALL directory."
        Program examples are displayed in a monospaced font on a shaded background.
        For example:
    
typedef struct vendor {
    char name[MAXFIELD];             // Vendor name
    char street[MAXFIELD];           // Street name and number
    char city[MAXFIELD];             // City
    char state[3];                   // Two-digit US state code
    char zipcode[6];                 // US zipcode
    char phone_number[13];           // Vendor phone number
} VENDOR; 
        Finally, notes of interest are represented using a note block such as this.
