SYNOPSIS

6          mongoc_server_description_t *
7          mongoc_client_get_handshake_description (mongoc_client_t *client,
8                                                   uint32_t server_id,
9                                                   bson_t *opts,
10                                                   bson_error_t *error)
11             BSON_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT;

13       Returns  a  description constructed from the initial handshake response
14       to a server.

DESCRIPTION

17       mongoc_client_get_handshake_description()     is     distinct      from
18       mongoc_client_get_server_description().
19       mongoc_client_get_server_description()  returns  a  server  description
20       constructed  from monitoring, which may differ from the server descrip‐
21       tion constructed from the connection handshake.
22
23       mongoc_client_get_handshake_description() will attempt to  establish  a
24       connection  to  the server if a connection was not already established.
25       It will perform the MongoDB handshake and authentication if required.
26
27       Use this function only for building a language driver that wraps the  C
28       Driver. When writing applications in C, higher-level functions automat‐
29       ically select a suitable server.
30
31   Single-threaded client behavior
32       Single-threaded clients only have one active connection to each server.
33       The  one  connection is used for both monitoring and application opera‐
34       tions.    However,    the    server     description     returned     by
35       mongoc_client_get_handshake_description()  may  still  differ  from the
36       server description returned by  mongoc_client_get_server_description().
37       Notably,  if  connected to a load balanced cluster, the server descrip‐
38       tion returned by mongoc_client_get_server_description()  will  describe
39       the  load balancer server (mongoc_server_description_type() will return
40       "LoadBalancer").   And   the    server    description    returned    by
41       mongoc_client_get_handshake_description()  will  describe  the  backing
42       server.

PARAMETERS

45client: A mongoc_client_t.
46
47server_id: The ID of the server. This can be obtained from the server
48         description of mongoc_client_select_server().
49
50opts: Unused. Pass NULL.
51
52error: An optional location for a bson_error_t or NULL.
53

RETURNS

55       A    mongoc_server_description_t    that    must    be    freed    with
56       mongoc_server_description_destroy(). If a connection has not been  suc‐
57       cessfully  established  to  a  server, returns NULL and error is filled
58       out.
