Key without data

#1

Hi,

I'm planning to use bdb on a program that will check if a given key
exists on the database. The key don't need to have data. In fact, it
don't have.

Is it possible to do this or i have to use at least a small amount (1
byte, maybe?) of dummy data ? Not using data will affect performance?

Thank you.

Dummy data is not necessary. Just use an empty DBT (with size zero).
