MONGOC_GRIDFS_BUCKET_DESTROY(3)

πŸ’… MONGOC_GRIDFS_BUCKET_DESTROY(3) πŸ’…

okay bestie so this is a page from the libmongoc manual, and honestly? it's a short one. a lil snack. a palate cleanser. but it's iconic in its own tiny way, so let's get into it 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void
mongoc_gridfs_bucket_destroy (mongoc_gridfs_bucket_t *bucket);

literally the whole function. void in, void out, no return value, no drama. it's giving one job and it does it πŸ’…


🌸 PARAMETERS 🌸

  • bucket β€” a mongoc_gridfs_bucket_t or NULL. yes bestie, NULL is a totally valid thing to hand it, and we love that for us ✨

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so what does it do? it destroys a mongoc_gridfs_bucket_t. that's it. that's the whole vibe. clean up your bucket, free the thing, move on with your life πŸ’–

and if you pass it NULL? it does nothing. zero. zilch. no crash, no error, no screaming into the void β€” it just shrugs and lets you live. lowkey the most forgiving function in the whole library, no cap πŸ™ˆ

fr fr, NULL is safe here β€” it does nothing if passed NULL. but "destroy" still means destroy, so don't go using that bucket pointer afterwards, bestie 😭
