bson_append_timestamp (bson_t     *bson,
                       const char *key,
                       int         key_length,
                       uint32_t    timestamp,
                       uint32_t    increment);

PARAMETERS

bson
    A bson_t .

key An ASCII C string containing the name of the field.

key_length

DESCRIPTION
This function is not similar in functionality to bson_append_date_time(3) . Timestamp elements are different in that they include only second precision and an increment field. They are primarily used for intra-MongoDB server communication. The bson_append_timestamp(3) function shall append a new element of type BSON_TYPE_TIMESTAMP.

RETURNS
true if the operation was applied successfully, otherwise false and bson should be discarded.
