MONGOC_FIND_A...Y_OPTS_DESTROY(3)

💅 mongoc_find_and_modify_opts_destroy(3) — the libmongoc glow-up

okay bestie, so this one's a tiny little cleanup icon and honestly it's giving "short but essential." it lives in the libmongoc manual, and it's the function you call when you're done playing with your find-and-modify builder and you want it to, like, respectfully leave the chat. 🧹✨

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void
mongoc_find_and_modify_opts_destroy (
   mongoc_find_and_modify_opts_t *find_and_modify_opts);

no return value, no drama — it's void, she just does her job and dips. 🫶

---

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

• find_and_modify_opts — a mongoc_find_and_modify_opts_t. that's the builder struct in question, the main character of this whole operation 💅

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so what does it actually do? it frees all the resources associated with the find and modify builder structure. literally all of them. it's the "leave no trace" of C structs. 🌈

and here's the part that ate: if find_and_modify_opts is NULL, it does nothing. no segfault, no tears, no embarrassing crash in front of your friends. iconic behavior, truly. 👑

ngl this is the exact kind of function you call and then immediately forget about — which is honestly the highest compliment a destructor can receive. 🦋

---

🦋 AUTHOR 🦋

MongoDB, Inc — yeah, the whole company. they said "we'll take credit for this one too." and honestly? valid. 🫡

and that's the whole page, bestie — short, sweet, and she frees everything she's supposed to. go forth and not leak memory. 💖✨
