#48335 [NEW]: dba_open can only create files in DBHash file format

From: carsten_sttgt at gmx dot de Operating system: Irrelevant PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: dba_open can only create files in DBHash file format Description: ------------ Hello, in addition to bug #48270 After looking in dba_db4.c, PHP is always using DB_BTREE as creation mode, if you use "c" or "n" as mode parameter for dba_open() and a database is newly created. It's not possible to create databases with the DB file format (or access method) Hash, Queue and Recno. See: http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/api_c/db_open.html http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/gsg/C/accessmethods.html This limitation should be mentioned in the manual at: http://de.php.net/manual/en/function.dba-open.php http://de.php.net/manual/en/dba.requirements.php Don't have the sources for db3/2. Maybe it's similar there.
