BSON_ITER_TIMEVAL(3)

πŸ’… BSON_ITER_TIMEVAL(3) β€” like, the libbson manual, bestie

okay so welcome to the BSON_ITER_TIMEVAL page, part of the libbson manual, and honestly? she's short, she's sweet, she gets straight to the point. no notes. πŸŽ€


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void
bson_iter_timeval (const bson_iter_t *iter, struct timeval *tv);

that's it. that's the whole vibe. two params, no return value, in and out. 🫢


🌸 PARAMETERS 🌸

  • iter β€” a bson_iter_t. like, the iterator. the main character. πŸ‘‘
  • tv β€” a struct timeval. this is where the good stuff lands, bestie. ✨

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so the bson_iter_timeval() function shall return the number of seconds and microseconds since the UNIX epoch, as contained in the BSON_TYPE_DATE_TIME element, straight into tv. πŸ•°οΈπŸ’«

the way that it just hands you seconds and microseconds like that… iconic. no cap. the epoch is literally the starting line and this function is out here telling you how far we've run. 🏁πŸ”₯

ngl, tv is where the output goes, so like… don't sleep on it. that's the whole point of the parameter. πŸ™ˆ
