The Berkeley DB library uses the following environment
variables:
</p>
<div class="variablelist">
<dl>
<dt>
<span class="term">DB_HOME</span>
</dt>
<dd>
If the environment variable DB_HOME is set, it
is used as part of <a class="xref" href="env_naming.html" title="File naming">File naming</a>. Note: For the
DB_HOME variable to take effect, either the
<a href="../api_reference/C/envopen.html#envopen_DB_USE_ENVIRON" class="olink">DB_USE_ENVIRON</a> or <a href="../api_reference/C/envopen.html#envopen_DB_USE_ENVIRON_ROOT" class="olink">DB_USE_ENVIRON_ROOT</a> flags must
be specified to <a href="../api_reference/C/envopen.html" class="olink">DB_ENV->open()</a>.
</dd>
<dt>
<span class="term">TMPDIR, TEMP, TMP, TempFolder</span>
</dt>
<dd>
The TMPDIR, TEMP, TMP, and TempFolder
environment variables are all checked as locations in
which to create temporary files. See <a href="../api_reference/C/envset_tmp_dir.html" class="olink">DB_ENV->set_tmp_dir()</a>
for more information.
