SYNOPSIS

          bool
          mongoc_database_drop_with_opts (mongoc_database_t *database,
                                          const bson_t *opts,
                                          bson_error_t *error);

PARAMETERS

       • database: A mongoc_database_t <>.

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

       opts may be NULL or a BSON document with additional command options:

       • writeConcern: Construct a mongoc_write_concern_t <> and use mongoc_write_concern_append() <> to add the
         write concern to opts. See the example code for mongoc_client_write_command_with_opts() <>.

       • sessionId: First, construct a mongoc_client_session_t <> with mongoc_client_start_session() <>. You can
         begin   a   transaction   with   mongoc_client_session_start_transaction()   <>,   optionally   with  a
         mongoc_transaction_opt_t  <>  that  overrides  the   options   inherited   from   database,   and   use
         mongoc_client_session_append()   <>   to   add   the   session  to  opts.  See  the  example  code  for
         mongoc_client_session_t <>.

       • collation: Configure textual comparisons. See Setting  Collation  Order  <https://www.mongodb.com/docs/
         languages/c/c-driver/current/libmongoc/guides/bulk/#setting-collation-order>,  and  the  MongoDB Manual
         entry  on  Collation  <https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/collation/>.  Collation   requires
         MongoDB 3.2 or later, otherwise an error is returned.

       • serverId:  To  target  a  specific  server, include an int32 "serverId" field. Obtain the id by calling
         mongoc_client_select_server() <>, then mongoc_server_description_id() <> on its return value.

DESCRIPTION

       This function attempts to drop a database on the MongoDB server.

       If no write concern is provided in opts, the database's write concern is used.

       The encryptedFields document in opts may be used to drop  a  collection  used  for  Queryable  Encryption
       <https://www.mongodb.com/docs/languages/c/c-driver/current/libmongoc/guides/queryable-encryption/>.

ERRORS

       Errors are propagated via the error parameter.

RETURNS

       Returns  true  if  successful. Returns false and sets error if there are invalid arguments or a server or
       network error.
