NAME

       bson_zero_free - bson_zero_free()

SYNOPSIS

          void
          bson_zero_free (void *mem, size_t size);

PARAMETERS

mem: A memory region.

       • size: The size of mem.

DESCRIPTION

       This function behaves like bson_free() except that it zeroes the memory first. This can be
       useful if you are storing passwords or other similarly important data.  Note  that  if  it
       truly  is important, you probably want a page protected with mlock() as well to prevent it
       swapping to disk.
