Hello,
at the risk of being called stupid again: I am still labouring with said issue. Before giving up my invest in LMBD, I'd like to try another route to meet my requirements. Since the main issue is the file size under Windows, my idea is to resize the map to the actual data size upon application shutdown. My problem then would be to determine the actual datasize. Can somebody tell me how that can be achieved?
thanks, Christian

Hello, following up to my previous question regarding file size, I would like to ask about the recommended approach:
You're being stupid.
The documentation already clearly states: http://symas.com/mdb/doc/group__mdb.html#gaa2506ec8dab3d969b0e609cd82e619e5
The size of the memory map is also the maximum size of the database. The value should be chosen as large as possible, to accommodate future growth of the database.
- set a low file size initially, watch for MDB_MAP_FULL return codes and
increase the file/map size stepwise as needed
No. That would be stupid.
- choose a large file size and reduce the size by doing a mdb_copy when the
application shuts down
No. That would be stupid.
or maybe a combination of the two? How does SQLightning handle this (2. doesn't sound practical)?
