BSON_ARRAY_AS_..._EXTENDED_JSON(3) libbson BSON_ARRAY_AS_..._EXTENDED_JSON(3) SYNOPSIS char * bson_array_as_legacy_extended_json (const bson_t *bson, size_t *length) PARAMETERS * bson: A bson_t. * length: An optional location for the length of the resulting string. DESCRIPTION bson_array_as_legacy_extended_json() encodes bson as a UTF-8 string using libbson's Legacy Extended JSON. The outermost element is encoded as a JSON array ([ ... ]), rather than a JSON document ({ ... }). This function is superseded by bson_array_as_canonical_extended_json() and bson_array_as_relaxed_extended_json(), which use the same MongoDB Extended JSON format as all other MongoDB drivers. The caller is responsible for freeing the resulting UTF-8 encoded string by calling bson_free() with the result. If non-NULL, length will be set to the length of the result in bytes. RETURNS If successful, a newly allocated UTF-8 encoded string and length is set. Upon failure, NULL is returned. EXAMPLE bson_t *b = BCON_NEW ("0", BCON_INT32 (1), "1", BCON_UTF8 ("bar")); // The document for an array is a normal BSON document with integer values for the keys, starting with 0 and // continuing sequentially. char *str = bson_array_as_legacy_extended_json (b, NULL); printf ("Legacy Extended JSON array: %s\n", str); // Prints: // Legacy Extended JSON array: [ 1, "bar" ] bson_free (str); bson_destroy (b); AUTHOR MongoDB, Inc COPYRIGHT 2009-present, MongoDB, Inc. 1.30.8 Aug 27, 2026BSON_ARRAY_AS_..._EXTENDED_JSON(3)
