MONGOC_DATABA..._WRITE_CONCERN(3)

okay so bestie, welcome to the libmongoc page for MONGOC_DATABA..._WRITE_CONCERN(3) — and yes, that truncated name is exactly how it shows up, we don't make the rules, we just slay within them 💅✨

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void
mongoc_database_set_write_concern (mongoc_database_t *database,
                                   const mongoc_write_concern_t *write_concern);

okay so what does this actually do?? it sets the write concern to use on operations performed with database. that's it. that's the whole assignment. 🦋

and like, the timing is everything — collections created with mongoc_database_get_collection() after this call will inherit this write concern. it's giving genetics, it's giving "your kids get your whole personality," it's giving main-character inheritance energy 🧬✨

the default write concern is MONGOC_WRITE_CONCERN_W_DEFAULT: the driver blocks awaiting basic acknowledgement of write operations from MongoDB. so it waits. patiently. like a bestie holding your iced coffee while you try on a seventh pair of jeans 🫶

and ngl? this is the correct write concern for the great majority of applications. so unless you have a very specific reason to switch it up, you're already eating. periodt. 👑
