NAME
       dptest - test cases for QDBM Depot


SYNOPSIS
       dptest write [-s] name rnum bnum
       dptest read [-wb] name
       dptest rcat [-c] name rnum bnum pnum align
       dptest combo name
       dptest wicked [-c] name rnum


DESCRIPTION
       The command `dptest' is a utility for facility test and performance
       test.  Check a database generated by the command or measure the
       execution time of the command.  This command is used in the following
       format.  `name' specifies a database name.  `rnum' specifies the number
       of the records.  `bnum' specifies the number of the elements of the
       bucket array.  `pnum' specifies the number of patterns of the keys.
       `align' specifies the basic size of alignment.  `fbpsiz' specifies the
       size of the free block pool.

       dptest write [-s] name rnum bnum
              Store records with keys of 8 bytes.  They change as `00000001',
              `00000002'...

       dptest read [-wb] name
              Retrieve all records of the database above.

       dptest rcat [-c] name rnum bnum pnum align fbpsiz
              Store records with partway duplicated keys using concatenate
              mode.

       dptest combo name
              Perform combination test of various operations.

       dptest wicked [-c] name rnum
              Perform updating operations selected at random.

Options feature the following.

       -s : make the file sparse.
       -wb : use the function `dpgetwb' instead of the function `dpget'.
       -c : perform comparison test with map of Cabin.

This command returns 0 on success, another on failure.  The environment
variable `QDBMDBGFD' specifies the file descriptor to output the history of
updating the variable `dpecode'.
