silc_list_init_prev

SYNOPSIS

    #define silc_list_init_prev(list, type, nextfield, prevfield) ...

DESCRIPTION

This macro initializes the SilcList list. The `list' is the defined list, second argument is the structure of the entries in the list, and last two arguments are the pointers in the structure that is used as next and prev list members. When using SilcList you must not touch the structure member pointers manually.

Having both next and prev pointers makes it possible to traverse list from both ends of the list (from start to end, and from end to start).

EXAMPLE

    struct SilcInternalEntryStruct {
      char *dummy;
      struct SilcInternalEntryStruct *next; // The list member pointer
      struct SilcInternalEntryStruct *prev; // The list member pointer
    };

    SilcList list;
    silc_list_init_prev(list, struct SilcInternalEntryStruct, next, prev);
