SYNOPSIS

11       mongoc_write_concern_t  tells  the driver what level of acknowledgement
12       to await from the server. The default,  MONGOC_WRITE_CONCERN_W_DEFAULT,
13       is right for the great majority of applications.
14
15       You  can  specify  a  write  concern  on  connection  objects, database
16       objects, collection objects, or  per-operation.  Data-modifying  opera‐
17       tions  typically  use  the write concern of the object they operate on,
18       and check the server response for a write concern error or  write  con‐
19       cern  timeout.  For example, mongoc_collection_drop_index uses the col‐
20       lection's write concern, and a write concern error or  timeout  in  the
21       response is considered a failure.
22
23       Exceptions to this principle are the generic command functions:
24
25       · mongoc_client_command
26
27       · mongoc_client_command_simple
28
29       · mongoc_database_command
30
31       · mongoc_database_command_simple
32
33       · mongoc_collection_command
34
35       · mongoc_collection_command_simple
36
37       These generic command functions do not automatically apply a write con‐
38       cern, and they do not check the server response  for  a  write  concern
39       error or write concern timeout.
