💅 MONGOC_GRIDFS_FILE_DESTROY(3) 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the libmongoc manual page for mongoc_gridfs_file_destroy — yes that's a whole mouthful, we're gonna get through it together 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void
mongoc_gridfs_file_destroy (mongoc_gridfs_file_t *file);

that's it. that's the whole vibe. one function, zero return value, and it's coming for your mongoc_gridfs_file_t. no cap 🔥

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

  • file — a mongoc_gridfs_file_t. that's literally the one thing it wants from you, and handle it with care because this function's whole personality is destroying it. 💀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the tea, bestie: mongoc_gridfs_file_destroy destroys the mongoc_gridfs_file_t instance and every single resource that's associated with it. all of it. gone. cleaned up. iconic behavior honestly. 👑

and if file is NULL? it does nothing. absolutely nothing. not a crash, not a segfault, not a dramatic exit — just vibes and silence. 😌 so if you're ever like "wait is this pointer even real," NULL is a totally safe thing to hand over. she just shrugs and moves on.

🫶 gentle reminder that "destroys the instance and any resources associated with it" is not a metaphor — after this call that file is cooked. don't go using it afterward, that's giving main character energy in the worst way 😭
