db4o

Db4oFactory.OpenFile Method (String)

Operates just like Db4objects.Db4o.Db4oFactory.OpenFile , but uses the global db4o Configuration context. opens an ObjectContainer on the specified database file for local use.

Subsidiary calls with the same database file name will return the same ObjectContainer object.

openFile()
requires a corresponding ObjectContainer.close .

Database files can only be accessed for readwrite access from one process (one Java VM) at one time. All versions except for db4o mobile edition use an internal mechanism to lock the database file for other processes.

   string databaseFileName
);
