SYNOPSIS¶
bool mongoc_collection_find_and_modify_with_opts (
mongoc_collection_t *collection,
const bson_t *query,
const mongoc_find_and_modify_opts_t *opts,
bson_t *reply,
bson_error_t *error);
PARAMETERS¶
- collection: A mongoc_collection_t <>.
- query: A bson_t <https://www.mongoc.org/libbson/current/bson_t.html> containing the query to locate target document(s).
- opts: A find and modify options <>. Must not be NULL.
- reply: A maybe-NULL pointer to overwritable storage <https://www.mongodb.com/docs/languages/c/c-driver/current/libbson/guides/lifetimes/#overwritable-storage> for a bson_t <https://www.mongoc.org/libbson/current/bson_t.html> to contain the results.
- error: An optional location for a bson_error_t <> or NULL.
DESCRIPTION¶
Update and return an object.
reply is always initialized, and must be freed with bson_destroy() <https://www.mongoc.org/libbson/current/bson_destroy.html>.
If an unacknowledged write concern is set (through mongoc_find_and_modify_opts_append() <>), the output reply is always an empty document.
On success, the output reply contains the full server reply to the findAndModify command. See the MongoDB Manual page for findAndModify <https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/command/findAndModify/#output> for the expected server reply.
ERRORS¶
Errors are propagated via the error parameter.
RETURNS¶
Returns true if successful. Returns false and sets error if there are invalid arguments or a server or network error.
A write concern timeout or write concern error is considered a failure.
EXAMPLE¶
See the example code for mongoc_find_and_modify_opts_t <#mongoc-collection-find-and-modify-with-opts-example>.
