BSON_GET_MAJOR_VERSION(3)

🎀 BSON_GET_MAJOR_VERSION(3) 🎀

ok so bestie, this is a page from the libbson manual, and it's lowkey the shortest little baddie ever — but she still ate 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int
bson_get_major_version (void);

like, that's it. that's the whole vibe. no arguments, no nothing 🦋

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so real talk: bson_get_major_version grabs the first number in libbson's MAJOR.MINOR.MICRO release version. she's the main character of the version string — the big one, the headliner, the one everyone points at 👑

so if the version is like MAJOR.MINOR.MICRO, this function is handing you the MAJOR part and nothing else. periodt 🎀

---

🌸 RETURNS 🌸

it returns the value of BSON_MAJOR_VERSION at the moment libbson was compiled ✨

ngl that distinction matters — it's giving "compiled-time" energy, not "ask the library at runtime" energy. iykyk 🧚
