| Description |
|
To explain a query presently we pass in a type but we receive a BsonDocument. That works, but it would be so much better to return a strongly typed object that matches the data returned from explain. Today: Tomorrow: QueryPlan is a class that (AFAIK) is yet to be defined. I have a working version which returns a static type (which has properties you might expect like CursorType, etc). I would like to submit this back to the driver. What GitHub branch would be best to start from and to issue a pull request back to? |

The server is completely revamping how explain works. The result of this that the effort to create a strongly typed explain that works consistently across server versions is going to be very difficult and very finicky. Ultimately, we think it will be more of a problem than an aid and have decided to not do this. Thanks for the idea and PR. Craig |
