BSON_DESTROY(3)

πŸ’– BSON_DESTROY πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to bson_destroy from libbson β€” yes, the libbson, she's famous, we stan 🫢 this one's a short lil page but it's important, so pay attention fr fr.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void
bson_destroy (bson_t *bson);

literally that's it. one function, zero games. she does one job and she slays it πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ PARAMETERS πŸŽ€

  • bson β€” a bson_t. that's the whole vibe check. it's a pointer to a bson_t, bestie πŸ’–

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so like, bson_destroy() shall free an allocated bson_t structure. that's the assignment. that's the whole assignment. she frees it, done, iconic πŸ‘‘

and if bson is NULL? she does nothing. no crash, no drama, no scene in the group chat β€” just absolutely nothing, bestie 🧚 literally the most chill behaviour possible.

⭐ important life rule: you should always call this function when you're done with a bson_t, unless otherwise specified. every time. no cap. don't just leave your bson_t sitting there unattended like a read receipt you never answered 😭

it really is that simple β€” call her when you're done, she cleans up, everyone moves on. main character energy but make it memory management πŸ’€βœ¨
