int
DB->set_blob_threshold(DB *db, u_int32_t bytes, u_int32_t flags); </pre>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB->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->set_bt_compress()">DB->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->open()">DB->open()</a> is called.
</p>
<p>
Unless otherwise specified, the
<code class="methodname">DB->set_blob_threshold()</code> <span>
<span>
method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
