Accesses to any fields within that structure by the application should be replaced with method calls. The following example illustrates this using the historic errpfx structure field. In the Berkeley DB 2.X releases, applications set error prefixes using code similar to the following:</p> <blockquote><pre>DB_ENV *dbenv; <p> dbenv->errpfx = "my prefix";</pre></blockquote> <p>in the Berkeley DB 3.X releases, this should be done using the <a href="../../api_c/env_set_errpfx.html">DB_ENV->set_errpfx</a> method, as follows:</p> <blockquote><pre>DB_ENV *dbenv; <p> dbenv->set_errpfx(dbenv, "my prefix");</pre></blockquote> <p>The following table lists the <a href="../../api_c/env_class.html">DB_ENV</a> fields previously used by applications and the methods that should now be used to set them.</p> <table border=1 align=center> <tr><th><a href="../../api_c/env_class.html">DB_ENV</a> field</th><th>Berkeley DB 3.X method</th></tr> <tr><td>db_errcall</td><td><a href="../../api_c/env_set_errcall.html">DB_ENV->set_errcall</a></td></tr> <tr><td>db_errfile</td><td><a href="../../api_c/env_set_errfile.html">DB_ENV->set_errfile</a></td></tr> <tr><td>db_errpfx</td><td><a href="../../api_c/env_set_errpfx.html">DB_ENV->set_errpfx</a></td></tr> <tr><td>db_lorder</td><td>This field was removed from the <a href="../../api_c/env_class.html">DB_ENV</a> structure in the Berkeley DB 3.0 release as no application should have ever used it.
