MONGOC_IOVEC_T(3)

SYNOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

    #include <mongoc/mongoc.h>
    #ifdef _WIN32
    typedef struct {
       u_long iov_len;
       char *iov_base;
    } mongoc_iovec_t;
    #else
    typedef struct iovec mongoc_iovec_t;
    #endif

The mongoc_iovec_t structure is a portability abstraction for consumers of the mongoc_stream_t interfaces. It allows for scatter/gather I/O through the socket subsystem.

WARNING: When writing portable code, beware of the ordering of iov_len and iov_base as they are different on various platforms. Therefore, you should not use C initializers for initialization.
