# mongoc_stream_t

## Synopsis

    typedef struct _mongoc_stream_t mongoc_stream_t

`mongoc_stream_t` provides a generic streaming IO abstraction based on a struct of pointers interface. The idea is to allow wrappers, perhaps other language drivers, to easily shim their IO system on top of `mongoc_stream_t`.

The API for the stream abstraction is currently private and non-extensible.

## Stream Types

There are a number of built in stream types that come with mongoc. The default configuration is a buffered unix stream. If SSL is in use, that in turn is wrapped in a tls stream.

## Functions

- mongoc_stream_buffered_new()
- mongoc_stream_close()
- mongoc_stream_cork()
- mongoc_stream_destroy()
- mongoc_stream_flush()
- mongoc_stream_get_base_stream()
- mongoc_stream_read()
- mongoc_stream_readv()
- mongoc_stream_setsockopt()
- mongoc_stream_uncork()
- mongoc_stream_write()
- mongoc_stream_writev()
