    There are interfaces in the Berkeley DB library which either directly

    The {@link com.sleepycat.db.EnvironmentConfig#setMessageHandler EnvironmentConfig.setMessageHandler} and
    {@link com.sleepycat.db.DatabaseConfig#setMessageHandler DatabaseConfig.setMessageHandler} methods are used to
    display these messages for the application.
