BSON_APPEND_ARRAY_BEGIN(3)	    libbson	    BSON_APPEND_ARRAY_BEGIN(3)

SYNOPSIS
	  #define BSON_APPEND_ARRAY_BEGIN(b, key, child) \
	     bson_append_array_begin (b, key, (int) strlen (key), child)

	  bool
	  bson_append_array_begin (bson_t *bson,
				   const char *key,
				   int key_length,
				   bson_t *child);

PARAMETERS
        bson: A bson_t.

        key: A	string containing the name for the key.

        key_length: The length	of key or -1 to	call strlen().

        child:	A bson_t.

DESCRIPTION
       The  bson_append_array_begin()  function	shall begin appending an array
       field to	bson. This allows for incrementally building a sub-array.  Do-
       ing so will generally yield better performance as you will serialize to
       a single	buffer.	When done building the sub-array, the caller MUST call
       bson_append_array_end().

       For generating array element keys, see bson_uint32_to_string().

       Consider	 using bson_array_builder_t to append an array without needing
       to generate array element keys.

RETURNS
       Returns true if the operation was applied  successfully.	 The  function
       will fail if appending the array	grows bson larger than INT32_MAX.

       SEE ALSO:
	  bson_array_builder_t
