ctVerifyFile
This ISAM-level function verifies the total integrity of a c-treeACE data file and its associated index files.
Function Name
NINT ctVerifyFile(pctVFYFIL pvfyfil);
Type
ISAM-level function
Description
typedef struct ctvfyfil {
LONG verson; /* Version of this structure. */
LONG options; /* Which operations to perform. */
LONG errbufsiz; /* Size of optional error message buffer. */
LONG chkkey; /* Index files to check (0=all, 1=first
index in IFIL, 2=second index, etc). */
pTEXT datnam; /* Name of data file to check. */
pTEXT fileword; /* Optional data file password. */
pVFYMSGCBFNC fnmessage; /* Optional message callback function. */
pVFYPRGCBFNC fnprogress; /* Optional progress callback function. */
pVFYERRCBFNC fnerror; /* Optional progress callback function. */
pTEXT errbuf; /* Optional error message buffer. */
} ctVFYFIL, *pctVFYFIL;
An optional callback can be called from the fnprogress structure member.
Supported options
ctVFopenExclusive |
Open the files in exclusive mode. Otherwise, the files are opened in read-only mode, allowing other connections to also open the file in read-only mode. |
ctVFchkDataOnly |
Read the data file in physical order, not checking keys. |
ctVFchkDataWithKeys |
Read the data file in physical order and check that each index contains the key built from the record image. |
ctVFchkIndexInternals |
Perform more thorough index validations for unusual problems. |
ctVFchkIndexOnly |
Read the index file in key order and don't check the key built from the record image. |
ctVFchkIndexWithRecord |
Read the index file in key order and check that the key built from the record image matches the key in the index. |
ctVFchkDeletedSpace |
Scan a data files delete stack or space management index verifying each deleted space entry corresponds to a deleted (not active) record. |
ctVFYFILspaceStart |
Deleted space scan is starting. (for use with a callback) |
ctVFYFILspacePct |
Deleted space scan in progress, with the pct parameter indicating approximate percent complete. (for use with a callback) |
ctVFYFILspaceEnd |
Deleted space scan has completed. (for use with a callback) |
Note: ctVerifyFile() requires exclusive access to the file (ctVFopenExclusive). The only exception is the ctVFchkDeletedSpace option, which does not require exclusive access.
The source code for the accompanying ctvfyfil utility provides a good example showing how to use the ctVerifyFile() function.
Note: When a user-defined ctVerifyFile() error callback function returns a non-zero error code so that it can cancel the verification operation, ctVerifyFile() returns the c-tree error code and system error code for the error that triggered that call to the error callback function.
