+ <p>
+ The <code class="methodname">DB-&gt;set_blob_threshold()</code> method sets
+ a size which is used to determine when a data item will be
+ stored as a BLOB. Data items sized less than this threshold are
+ stored as normal data within the database. Data items larger than
+ this size are stored on-disk in a subdirectory set aside for the
+ purpose.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ If this threshold value is set to <code class="literal">0</code>, then BLOBs
+ will never be used by the database.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ It is illegal to set a BLOB threshold if any of the following flags
+ were specified for the database:
+ <a class="link" href="dbset_flags.html#dbset_flags_DB_CHKSUM">DB_CHKSUM</a>,
+ <a class="link" href="dbset_flags.html#dbset_flags_DB_ENCRYPT">DB_ENCRYPT</a>,
+ <a class="link" href="dbset_flags.html#dbset_flags_DB_DUP">DB_DUP</a>, and
+ <a class="link" href="dbset_flags.html#dbset_flags_DB_DUPSORT">DB_DUPSORT</a>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ It is also illegal to set a BLOB threshold if compression is
+ turned on for the database. That is, if <a class="xref" href="dbset_bt_compress.html" title="DB-&gt;set_bt_compress()">DB-&gt;set_bt_compress()</a> has
+ been called for the database handle.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ This method configures the underlying database. The BLOB threshold
+ is stored in the database at database creation time. Any BLOB
+ threshold set after creating the database is ignored.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ This method may not be called after <a class="xref" href="dbopen.html" title="DB-&gt;open()">DB-&gt;open()</a> is called.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Unless otherwise specified, the
+ <code class="methodname">DB-&gt;set_blob_threshold()</code> <span>
+ <span>
+ method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
