mongoc_gridfs_bucket_t - Man Page

#include <mongoc/mongoc.h>

typedef struct _mongoc_gridfs_bucket_t mongoc_gridfs_bucket_t;

mongoc_gridfs_bucket_t provides a spec-compliant MongoDB GridFS implementation, superseding mongoc_gridfs_t. See the GridFS MongoDB documentation.

mongoc_gridfs_bucket_t is NOT thread-safe and should only be used in the same thread as the owning mongoc_client_t.

It is an error to free a mongoc_gridfs_bucket_t before freeing all derived instances of mongoc_stream_t. The owning mongoc_client_t must outlive the mongoc_gridfs_bucket_t.
