Summary
Replace
bool
in BSON DSL withboolean
.Evergreen patch: https://spruce.mongodb.com/version/668c26d644a2bb0007db5a0f
Background & Motivation
Intended to avoid possible build errors when
bool
is defined as a macro. This forum post suggests the user's build environment definesbool
(or_Bool
) asint
, resulting in a build error due to BSON DSL macros evaluating to an undeclared identifier:To reproduce the reported issue, a
stdbool.h
was added locally to definebool
asint
:In the process of testing, other misuse of
bool
variables in tests were discovered and addressed as drive-by fixes.
