Basically I need to have an opportunity to call mdb_get while in

transaction.
The sequence is smth like:
- txn = mdb_txn_begin(flags=0)
for i in 0..x:
- v = mdb_get(txn, i)
- mdb_put(txn, x+i, v)
- mdb_put(txn, i, v+1)
- mdb_txn_commit(txn)
Will it be always valid data?
Yes.
...No. I expect he means v = the MDB_val returned by mdb_get().
mdb_put() can modify the data it points at.
Since he's using "v+1" in his example I assumed he's making a local copy of
the returned values. Anyway, the plain answer to the question in the Subject
is Yes.
See the MDB_val documentation in ldmb.h:
* Values returned from the database are valid only until a
subsequent
* update operation, or the end of the transaction. Do not modify or
* free them, they commonly point into the database itself.
What exactly does a subsequent update operation mean? Overwriting the
value of the same key,
If we meant "same key" we would have said so.
or any mdb_put or mdb_cursor_put operation at
all, regardless of which key they touch?
