## Package com.sleepycat.db Description

Berkeley DB Java API
[reference guide] [Java programming notes].

This package is a wrapper around the Berkeley DB library. It uses JNI to provide access to Berkeley DB, which is implemented in C. That means that a shared library or DLL must be available when applications use this package.

There are also several utilities provided with Berkeley DB that make administrative tasks possible from the command line. For more information, see the page Berkeley DB Supporting Utilities.
