Description

The db put command stores the specified key/data pair into the database.

The options are as follows:

• -append Append the data item to the end of the database. For the -append option to be specified, the underlying database must be a Queue or Recno database. The record number allocated to the record is returned on success.

• -nooverwrite Enter the new key/data pair only if the key does not already appear in the database.

• -partial {doff dlen} The dlen bytes starting doff bytes from the beginning of the specified key’s data record are replaced by the data specified by the data and size structure elements. ...
