       (including the initial offset). This includes a partly written  document  currently  being
       written.

SYNOPSIS

       size_t
       bson_writer_get_length (bson_writer_t *writer);

PARAMETERS

       writer A bson_writer_t \&.

DESCRIPTION

       Fetches  the  current  length  of the content written by the buffer (including the initial
       offset). This includes a partly written document currently being written.

       This is useful if you want to check to see if you've passed a given  memory  boundry  that
       cannot  be  sent  in  a  packet. See bson_writer_rollback(3) to abort the current document
       being written.

RETURNS

       The length of the underlying buffer.
