NAME
dbh_regen_sweep, dbh_regen_fanout, dbh_settempdir - make physical
structure of the DBHashTable congruent with logical structure
SYNOPSIS
#include <dbh.h>
DBHashTable *dbh_regen_sweep (DBHashTable *dbh);
DBHashTable *dbh_regen_fanout (DBHashTable *dbh);
int dbh_settempdir (DBHashTable *dbh, char *temp_dir);
DESCRIPTION
Regenerate the DBHashTable eliminating erased records and optimizing
disk access and speed for sweep access using dbh_regen_sweep and for
fanout access using dbh_regen_fanout. This is done by creating a new
DBHashTable where the physical structure matches the logical structure.
The temporary directory where the new DBHashTable is created may be set
with dbh_settempdir(). Current DBHashTable is closed before removed.
New DBHashTable is opened after renamed.
RETURN VALUE
A pointer to the new DBHashTable.
