MONGOC_CHANGE_STREAM_T(3)

NAME
mongoc_change_stream_t - mongoc_change_stream_t

SYNOPSIS

#include <mongoc.h>
typedef struct _mongoc_change_stream_t mongoc_change_stream_t;

mongoc_change_stream_t is a handle to a change stream. A collection change stream can be obtained using mongoc_collection_watch.

It is recommended to use a mongoc_change_stream_t and its functions instead of a raw aggregation with a $changeStream stage. For more information see the MongoDB Manual Entry on Change Streams.
