bson_context_new()

Synopsis

bson_context_t *
bson_context_new (bson_context_flags_t flags);

Parameters

• flags: A bson_context_flags_t.

The following flags may be used: * BSON_CONTEXT_NONE meaning creating ObjectIDs with this context is not a thread-safe operation. * BSON_CONTEXT_DISABLE_PID_CACHE meaning creating ObjectIDs will also check if the process has changed by calling getpid() on every ObjectID generation.

The following flags are deprecated and have no effect:

• BSON_CONTEXT_DISABLE_HOST_CACHE
• BSON_CONTEXT_THREAD_SAFE
• BSON_CONTEXT_USE_TASK_ID

Description

Creates a new bson_context_t. This is rarely needed as bson_context_get_default() serves most use-cases.

Returns

A newly allocated bson_context_t that should be freed with bson_context_destroy().
