BSON_ITER_INIT_FIND(3)

πŸ’… BSON_ITER_INIT_FIND πŸ’…

okay bestie so this one is from libbson, and honestly? it's giving "short and sweet, no notes." πŸŽ€


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool
bson_iter_init_find (bson_iter_t *iter, const bson_t *bson, const char *key);

🌸 PARAMETERS 🌸

  • iter β€” a bson_iter_t. this is your little iterator buddy, the one that's gonna be pointed at stuff. πŸ’–
  • bson β€” a bson_t. the actual BSON document we're poking around inside. πŸ¦‹
  • key β€” the key you wanna locate, and the find happens after iter gets initialized. iykyk. πŸ”

πŸ’« DESCRIPTION πŸ’«

okay so real talk: this function is literally the same thing as doing (bson_iter_init() && bson_iter_find()). like, that's the whole personality. it inits the iterator and finds the key in one go, and it hands you back a bool because it's polite like that. πŸ‘‘

if you were about to write both calls back-to-back anyway, congrats, this is your shortcut. main character energy fr fr. ✨
