BSON_GET_VERSION(3)

πŸ’– bson_get_version β€” the libbson glow-up reveal πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to libbson's manual page for bson_get_version(3). it's a tiny one. it's giving "one function, zero drama" and honestly? we love that for us.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

const char *
bson_get_version (void);

that's it. that's the whole vibe check. no args, no flags, no surprises. πŸŽ€


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so bson_get_version hands you back a string representation of Libbson's version β€” no cap, that's literally its whole job. it's formatted something like "1.2.3" or "1.2.3-pre". so like, sometimes there's a cute little -pre suffix doing its thing at the end, and sometimes it's just the three numbers living their life. πŸ’…

one (1) function. one (1) string. main character energy. ✨


🫢 RETURNS 🫢

a string. but bestie, listen β€” you must not modify or free it. it is not yours. it's borrowed from the library, and if you touch it, the vibes will be ruined (and possibly worse). look, don't touch. hands off. πŸ™ˆ

  • you can read it πŸ”₯
  • you can't modify it πŸ’€
  • you can't free it 😭
