BSON_ITER_OVERWRITE_INT32(3)

💖 BSON_ITER_OVERWRITE_INT32 💖

okay so welcome to the libbson manual page for bson_iter_overwrite_int32, bestie — this one is short but it has a lil twist, so stay with me 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here is the whole signature, exactly as it is, no cap:

          void
          bson_iter_overwrite_int32 (bson_iter_t *iter, int32_t value);

---

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

• iter — A bson_iter_t.
• value — A int32_t.

that's it, those are the two, we love a simple cast 💅

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

The bson_iter_overwrite_int32() function shall overwrite the contents of a BSON_TYPE_INT32 element in place.

⚠️ okay so this is important, bestie: this may only be done when the underlying bson document allows mutation. do not try to be cute with a document that said no to mutation, fr fr.

It is a programming error to call this function when iter is not observing an element of type BSON_TYPE_BOOL.

and yes, the original manual says BSON_TYPE_BOOL right there — exactly like that — and I am not changing the facts, I'm just the messenger 😭💀
