BSON_COPY_TO_EXCLUDING_NOINIT_VA(3)

💅 BSON_COPY_TO_EXCLUDING_NOINIT_VA — libbson manual page 💅

Okay bestie, this is the libbson page for bson_copy_to_excluding_noinit_va(). It’s giving “copy my fields but skip a few,” and honestly? Iconic. ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void
bson_copy_to_excluding_noinit_va (const bson_t *src,
                                  bson_t *dst,
                                  const char *first_exclude,
                                  va_list args);

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

• src — a bson_t. The source doc you’re copying from, aka the main character.
• dst — a bson_t. The destination doc getting all the copied fields.
• first_exclude — the first field name to exclude. Yup, this one gets skipped.
• args — a va_list. The rest of the excluded field names come through here, iykyk.

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

The bson_copy_to_excluding_noinit_va() function shall copy all fields from src to dst except those specified by first_exclude and args. Literally all the fields, except the ones you name to leave out. Slay. 💅

Does not call bson_init() on dst.

🫶 Heads up, bestie: no init energy here. It does not call bson_init() on dst. Do not expect it to set dst up for you — that part is not happening on this function’s watch.
