NAME

8       Client-side cursor abstraction

SYNOPSIS

11          typedef struct _mongoc_cursor_t mongoc_cursor_t;
12
13       mongoc_cursor_t provides access to a MongoDB query cursor.  It wraps up
14       the wire protocol negotiation required to initiate a query and retrieve
15       an unknown number of documents.
16
17       Common cursor operations include:
18
19       • Determine      which     host     we've     connected     to     with
20         mongoc_cursor_get_host().
21
22       • Retrieve more records with repeated calls to mongoc_cursor_next().
23
24       • Clone  a  query  to  repeat  execution  at   a   later   point   with
25         mongoc_cursor_clone().
26
27       • Test for errors with mongoc_cursor_error().
28
29       Cursors are lazy, meaning that no connection is established and no net‐
30       work traffic occurs until the first call to mongoc_cursor_next().
31

THREAD SAFETY

33       mongoc_cursor_t is NOT thread safe. It may only be used from within the
34       thread in which it was created.
