✨ MONGOC_CURSOR_CURRENT ✨

okay bestie, welcome to MONGOC_CURSOR_CURRENT(3) 💖 — yes, the whole page lives under the libmongoc manual, and it's genuinely one of the shortest little slays in the whole cursor saga. ngl it's giving "small but mighty" energy 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

const bson_t *
mongoc_cursor_current (const mongoc_cursor_t *cursor);

like, that's it. that's the whole vibe. two lines of C and it's already iconic 💅

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

  • cursor — a mongoc_cursor_t. yeah, that one. the cursor you're currently obsessed with 🫶

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

okay so here's the tea ☕ — this function fetches the cursor's current document. literally just hands you whatever doc the cursor is sitting on right now. no drama, no extra steps, no cap 🎯

but bestie, listen 👀 — if there's been an error, you get NULL instead. not a doc, not a vibe, just NULL. so do a little vibe check on that return value before you go dereferencing anything, mwah 💋

👑 RETURNS 👑

  • a bson_t — that should not be modified or freed 🙈 like, hands off, it's not yours, don't touch it, don't bson_destroy it, don't edit it. just look at it respectfully 😌
  • or NULL — if something went sideways 💀
fr fr, that "should not be modified or freed" part is real. that bson_t is borrowed, not gifted. you modify it or free it and you're gonna have a bad time 😭
