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

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() <https://www.mongoc.org/libbson/current/bson_strfreev.html>. Upon failure, NULL is returned and error is set.
