Macro Definition Documentation

◆ CHERT_DEFAULT_BLOCK_SIZE

#define CHERT_DEFAULT_BLOCK_SIZE 8192

The default block size to use in a B-tree table.

If this is changed, be sure to update the API documentation correspondingly.

Definition at line 57 of file chert_types.h.

Referenced by ChertDatabase::compact(), and ChertTable::set_block_size().

◆ CHERT_MAX_DOCID

#define CHERT_MAX_DOCID Xapian::docid(0xffffffff)

The largest docid value supported by chert.

Definition at line 60 of file chert_types.h.

Referenced by ChertWritableDatabase::add_document(), check_db_dir(), check_db_table(), ChertPostListTable::get_used_docid_range(), and ValueUpdater::update().

Typedef Documentation

◆ chert_blocksize_t

typedef unsigned int chert_blocksize_t

Definition at line 28 of file chert_types.h.

◆ chert_doclen_t

typedef unsigned int chert_doclen_t

An integer type for storing the length of a document - ie, the sum of the wdfs of the terms in the document.

Definition at line 51 of file chert_types.h.

◆ chert_revision_number_t

typedef unsigned int chert_revision_number_t

A type used to store a revision number for a table.

A table's revision number increases monotonically, incrementing by one each time a modification is applied to the table.

FIXME: ensure that this is of a suitable minimum size - 32 bits is satisfactory in most cases, but in extreme cases could cause the revision number to roll over after a few years. It would be better to use 64 bits (and / or to ensure that rolling over causes no problem).

Definition at line 40 of file chert_types.h.

◆ chert_tablesize_t

typedef unsigned long long chert_tablesize_t

A type used to store the number of entries in a table.

Again, this must be of suitable minimum size.

Definition at line 46 of file chert_types.h.
