.SH "DESCRIPTION"

The
.B bson_type_t
enumeration contains all of the types from the
.B BSON Specification
. It can be used to determine the type of a field at runtime.

.SH "EXAMPLE"

.nf
.nf
bson_iter_t iter;

if (bson_iter_init_find (&iter, doc, "foo") &&
    (BSON_TYPE_INT32 == bson_iter_type (&iter))) {
   printf ("'foo' is an int32.\en");
}
