Set the maximum number of locks supported by the Berkeley DB lock subsystem.
This value is used by DbEnv::open to estimate how much space to
allocate for various lock-table data structures. For specific
information on configuring the size of the lock subsystem, see
Configuring locking: sizing the system.
The DbEnv::set_lk_max_locks interface may only be used to configure Berkeley DB before
the DbEnv::open interface is called.
The DbEnv::set_lk_max_locks method either returns a non-zero error value or throws an exception that
encapsulates a non-zero error value on failure, and returns 0 on success.
The database environment's maximum number of locks may also be set using the environment's
DB_CONFIG file. The syntax of the entry in that file is a
single line with the string "set_lk_max_locks", one or more whitespace characters,
and the number of locks. Because the DB_CONFIG file is read when the database
environment is opened, it will silently overrule configuration done
before that time.
