Parameters

filename

Type: const gchar*

A file name with the database to open/create.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.
The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
error

The argument can be NULL.
If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to a NULL GError*.
The argument will be left initialized to NULL by the constructor if there are no errors.
In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.

A new CamelDB instance, or NULL on error.

The caller of the function takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
The return value can be NULL.
