WARNING:

          Deprecated since version 1.9.0: Use mongoc_database_get_collection_names_with_opts() instead.

SYNOPSIS

          char **
          mongoc_database_get_collection_names (mongoc_database_t *database,
                                                bson_error_t *error);

DESCRIPTION

       Fetches  a NULL terminated array of NULL-byte terminated char* strings containing the names of all of the
       collections in database.

       This function is considered a retryable read operation.  Upon a transient error (a network error,  errors
       due  to  replica set failover, etc.) the operation is safely retried once.  If retryreads is false in the
       URI (see mongoc_uri_t) the retry behavior does not apply.

PARAMETERS

       • database: A mongoc_database_t.

       • error: An optional location for a bson_error_t or NULL.

ERRORS

       Errors are propagated via the error parameter.

RETURNS

       A NULL terminated array of NULL terminated char* strings that should be freed with bson_strfreev().  Upon
       failure, NULL is returned and error is set.
