DESCRIPTION

       Libbson  contains  a  lightweight  memory  abstraction  to  make  portability  to  new  platforms easier.
       Additionally, it helps us integrate with interesting higher-level languages. One caveat, however, is that
       Libbson  is not designed to deal with Out of Memory (OOM) situations. Doing so requires extreme diligence
       throughout the application stack that has rarely been implemented  correctly.  This  may  change  in  the
       future. As it stands now, Libbson will abort() under OOM situations.

       To  aid  in  language  binding  integration,  Libbson  allows  for  setting a custom memory allocator via
       bson_mem_set_vtable().  This allocation may be reversed via bson_mem_restore_vtable().
