    #include <db.h>

    int
    DB_ENV->txn_recover(DB_ENV *dbenv, DB_PREPLIST preplist[],
        long count, long *retp, u_int32_t flags);

### Description: DB_ENV->txn_recover

The DB_ENV->txn_recover method returns a list of prepared but not yet resolved transactions. The DB_ENV->txn_recover method should only be called after the environment has been recovered. Because database environment state must be preserved between recovery and the application calling DB_ENV->txn_recover, applications must either call DB_ENV->txn_recover using the same environment handle used when recovery is done, or the database environment must not be configured using the DB_PRIVATE flag.

On return from DB_ENV->txn_recover, the preplist parameter will be filled in with a list of transactions that must be resolved by the application (committed, aborted or discarded). The preplist parameter is a structure of type DB_PREPLIST; the following DB_PREPLIST fields will be filled in:

DB_TXN * txn;
  The transaction handle for the transaction.
u_int8_t gid[DB_XIDDATASIZE];
  The global transaction ID for the transaction. The global transaction ID is the one specified when the transaction was prepared. The application is responsible for ensuring uniqueness among global transaction IDs.

The application must call DB_TXN->abort, DB_TXN->commit or DB_TXN->discard on each returned DB_TXN handle before starting any new operations.

The DB_ENV->txn_recover method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.

### Parameters

count
  The count parameter specifies the number of available entries in the passed-in preplist array. The retp parameter returns the number of entries DB_ENV->txn_recover has filled in, in the array.

flags
  The flags parameter must be set to one of the following values:

  DB_FIRST
    Begin returning a list of prepared, but not yet resolved transactions.

  DB_NEXT
    Continue returning a list of prepared, but not yet resolved transactions, starting where the last call to DB_ENV->txn_recover left off.

preplist
  The preplist parameter references memory into which the list of transactions to be resolved by the application is copied.
