Hello folks On this page: http://www.lmdb.tech/doc/starting.html
The following passage occurs: > Because LMDB is very efficient (and usually zero-copy), the data returned in > an MDB_val structure may be memory-mapped straight from disk. In other words > look but do not touch (or free() for that matter). Once a transaction is > closed, the values can no longer be used, so make a copy if you need to keep > them after that. The second sentence above is a bit misleading. Returned data cannot be used after a subsequent update. Not mentioning that is misleading. Perhaps the second sentence can be replace with this: > The values can no longer be used after a subsequent update or after the > transaction ends. Make a copy if you need to keep them after that. The documentation for `mdb_get` is correct and does mention the constraints. It’ll be nice to update this page too. Best KS Sreeram
