.SH NAME
psi_create, psi_destroy, psi_reset, psi_start, psi_next, psi_remove - pointer set iterator functions
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
.ft B
#include "pset.h"
.LP
.ft B
psi_h psi_create( pset )
pset_h pset ;
.LP
.ft B
void psi_destroy( iter )
psi_h iter ;
.LP
.ft B
void psi_reset( iter, pset )
psi_h iter ;
pset_h pset ;
.LP
.ft B
void *psi_start( iter )
psi_h iter ;
.LP
.ft B
void *psi_next( iter )
psi_h iter ;
.LP
.ft B
void psi_remove( iter )
psi_h iter ;
.SH DESCRIPTION
These functions provide a means to iterate over psets (pointer sets).
.LP
.B psi_create()
creates an iterator. The only operation that should be applied to
an iterator after it is created is
.B psi_start().
.LP
.B psi_destroy()
destroys the iterator.
.LP
.B psi_reset()
changes the pset that is being iterated to
.I pset.
.LP
.B psi_start()
starts an iteration and returns the first pointer
in the pointer set.
.LP
.B psi_next()
returns the next pointer in the set.
.LP
.B psi_remove()
removes the current pointer from the set. The current pointer is
the one returned most recently from either
.B psi_start()
or
.B psi_next().
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.LP
.B psi_create()
returns an iterator handle on success or
.SM NULL
on failure.
.LP
.B psi_start()
returns the first pointer from the set or
.SM NULL
if the set is empty.
.LP
.B psi_next()
returns a pointer or
.SM NULL
if the end of the set is reached.
.SH WARNINGS
.B psi_create()
is the only function in this library. The rest of the interface is macros.
.LP
This interface may be eliminated in a future release of the
.I pset
library.
