bson_init_static - bson_init_static()

bool
bson_init_static (bson_t *b, const uint8_t *data, size_t length);


  • b: A bson_t.
  • data: A buffer to initialize with.
  • length: The length of data in bytes.

The bson_init_static() function shall shall initialize a read-only bson_t on the stack using the data provided. No copies of the data will be made and therefore must remain valid for the lifetime of the bson_t.

The resulting bson_t has internal references and therefore must not be copied to avoid dangling pointers in the copy.

Returns true if bson_t was successfully initialized, otherwise false. The function can fail if data or length are invalid.
