int exists(const char *path, int *isdirp);
The path argument is the pathname of the file to be checked.
If the isdirp argument is non-NULL, it must be set to non-0 if path is a directory, and 0 if path is not a directory.
The func_exists function must return the value of errno on failure and 0 on success.
The db_env_set_func_exists interface affects the entire application, not a single database or database environment. ...
