} bson_visitor_t bson_visitor_t;Description
The bson_visitor_t structure provides a series of callbacks that can be called while iterating a BSON document. This may simplify the conversion of a bson_t to a higher level language structure.
If the optional callback visit_unsupported_type is set, it is called instead of visit_corrupt in the specific case of an unrecognized field type. (Parsing is aborted in either case.) Use this callback to report an error like "unrecognized type" instead of simply "corrupt BSON". This future-proofs code that may use an older version of libbson to parse future BSON formats.
Example
#include <bson.h>
#include <stdio.h>
static bool
my_visit_before (const bson_iter_t *iter,
const char *key,
void *data)
{
int *count = (int *)data;
(*count)++;
/* returning true stops further iteration of the document */
return false;
}
static void
count_fields (bson_t *doc)
{
bson_visitor_t visitor = { 0 };
bson_iter_t iter;
int count = 0;
visitor.visit_before = my_visit_before;
if (bson_iter_init (&iter, doc)) {
bson_iter_visit_all (&iter, &visitor, &count);
}
printf ("Found %d fields.\n", count);
}
