Any ideas on why I get Segmentation fault for BerkeleyDB 4.0.14 would
be much appreciated.

An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the
VM.

Hi,

This looks like it could be a race condition in your application: is
one thread calling DbEnv.close while another is calling
DbEnv.lock_detect, both on the same handle?

If so, that is not permitted -- the application must ensure that
DbEnv.close is called single-threaded (after all other threads have
finished using the handle).

Regards,
Michael.

Thanks for your reply.
After a good look at the codes (wasn't written by me), I think you
are right; it was a race condition.

Cheers,
