SYNOPSIS
mongoc_stream_t *
mongoc_stream_buffered_new (mongoc_stream_t *base_stream, size_t buffer_size);
PARAMETERS
• base_stream: A mongoc_stream_t <> to buffer.
• buffer_size: A size_t containing the desired buffer size.
This function shall create a new mongoc_stream_t <> that buffers bytes to and from the underlying
base_stream.
buffer_size will be used as the initial buffer size. It may grow past this size.
Warning:
The internal buffer does not reduce in size once grown. Receiving a large message may result in a
large allocation that persists until the returned mongoc_stream_t <> is freed with
mongoc_stream_destroy() <>.
RETURNS
A newly allocated mongoc_stream_buffered_t <> on success, otherwise NULL. This should be freed with
mongoc_stream_destroy() <> when no longer in use.
