This function is superseded by \fI\%mongoc_collection_command_with_opts()\fP, \fI\%mongoc_collection_read_command_with_opts()\fP, \fI\%mongoc_collection_write_command_with_opts()\fP, and \fI\%mongoc_collection_read_write_command_with_opts()\fP\&.
.sp
This function is not considered a retryable read operation.
.SH PARAMETERS
.INDENT 0.0
.IP \(bu 2
\fBcollection\fP: A \fI\%mongoc_collection_t\fP\&.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBflags\fP: A \fI\%mongoc_query_flags_t\fP\&.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBskip\fP: A uint32_t with the number of documents to skip or zero.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBlimit\fP: A uint32_t with the max number of documents to return or zero.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBbatch_size\fP: A uint32_t with the number of documents in each batch or zero. Default is 100.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBcommand\fP: A \fI\%bson_t\fP containing the command to execute.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBfields\fP: A \fI\%bson_t\fP containing the fields to return or \fBNULL\fP\&. Not all commands support this option.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBread_prefs\fP: An optional \fI\%mongoc_read_prefs_t\fP\&. Otherwise, the command uses mode \fBMONGOC_READ_PRIMARY\fP\&.
.UNINDENT
.SH RETURNS
.sp
This function returns a newly allocated \fI\%mongoc_cursor_t\fP that should be freed with \fI\%mongoc_cursor_destroy()\fP when no longer in use. The returned \fI\%mongoc_cursor_t\fP is never \fBNULL\fP, even on error. The user must call \fI\%mongoc_cursor_next()\fP on the returned \fI\%mongoc_cursor_t\fP to execute the initial command.
.sp
Cursor errors can be checked with \fI\%mongoc_cursor_error_document()\fP\&. It always fills out the \fI\%bson_error_t\fP if an error occurred, and optionally includes a server reply document if the error occurred server\-side.
.sp
\fBWARNING:\fP
