       typedef struct _wget_list_st wget_list_t

   Functions
       void * wget_list_append (wget_list_t **list, const void *data, size_t size)
       void * wget_list_prepend (wget_list_t **list, const void *data, size_t size)

       void * wget_list_getfirst (const wget_list_t *list)
       void * wget_list_getlast (const wget_list_t *list)
       void * wget_list_getnext (const void *elem)
       int wget_list_browse (const wget_list_t *list, wget_list_browse_t browse, void *context)
       void wget_list_free (wget_list_t **list)

Detailed Description

       Double linked lists provide fast insertion, removal and iteration in either direction.

       Each element has pointers to the next and the previous element.
        Iteration can be done by calling the wget_list_browse() function, so the list structure
       doesn't need to be exposed.

       This datatype is used by the Wget tool to implement the job queue (append and remove).

       See wget_list_append() for an example on how to use lists.

       Type for double linked lists and list entries.

Function Documentation

   void* wget_list_append (wget_list_t ** list, const void * data, size_t size)
       Parameters
           list Pointer to Pointer to a double linked list
           data Pointer to data to be inserted
           size Size of data in bytes

       Returns
           Pointer to the new element

       Append an element to the end of the list.
        size bytes at data will be copied and appended to the list.

       A pointer to the new element will be returned.

       Note
           The returned pointer must be freed by wget_list_remove() or implicitly by
           wget_list_free().

       Example:

       wget_list_t *list = NULL;
       struct mystruct mydata1 = { .x = 1, .y = 25 };
       struct mystruct mydata2 = { .x = 5, .y = 99 };
       struct mystruct *data;

       wget_list_append(&list, &mydata1, sizeof(mydata1)); // append mydata1 to list
       wget_list_append(&list, &mydata2, sizeof(mydata2)); // append mydata2 to list

       data = wget_list_getfirst(list);
       printf("data=(%d,%d)0, data->x, data->y); // prints 'data=(1,25)'

       wget_list_remove(&list, data);

       data = wget_list_getfirst(list);
       printf("data=(%d,%d)0, data->x, data->y); // prints 'data=(5,99)'

       wget_list_free(&list);

   void* wget_list_prepend (wget_list_t ** list, const void * data, size_t size)
       Parameters
           list Pointer to Pointer to a double linked list
           data Pointer to data to be inserted
           size Size of data in bytes

       Returns
           Pointer to the new element

       Insert an entry at the beginning of the list. size bytes at data will be copied and
       prepended to the list.

       A pointer to the new element will be returned. It must be freed by wget_list_remove() or
       implicitely by wget_list_free().

   void wget_list_remove (wget_list_t ** list, void * elem)
       Parameters
           list Pointer to Pointer to a double linked list
           elem Pointer to a list element returned by wget_list_append() or wget_list_prepend()

       Remove an element from the list.

   void* wget_list_getfirst (const wget_list_t * list)
       Parameters
           list Pointer to a double linked list

       Returns
           Pointer to the first element of the list or NULL if the list is empty

       Get the first element of a list.

   void* wget_list_getlast (const wget_list_t * list)
       Parameters
           list Pointer to a double linked list

       Returns
           Pointer to the last element of the list or NULL if the list is empty

       Get the last element of a list.

   void* wget_list_getnext (const void * elem)
       Parameters
           elem Pointer to an element of a linked list

       Returns
           Pointer to the next element of the list or NULL if the list is empty

       Get the next element of a list.

   int wget_list_browse (const wget_list_t * list, wget_list_browse_t browse, void * context)
       Parameters
           list Pointer to a double linked list
           browse Pointer to callback function which is called for every element in the list. If
           the callback functions returns a value not equal to zero, browsing is stopped and this
           value will be returned by wget_list_browse.
           context The context handle that will be passed to the callback function

       Returns
           The return value of the last call to the browse function or -1 if list is NULL (empty)

       Iterate through all entries of the list and call the function browse for each.

       // assume that list contains C strings.
       wget_list_t *list = NULL;

       static int print_elem(void *context, const char *elem)
       {
          printf("%s0,elem);
          return 0;
       }

       void dump(WGET_LIST *list)
       {
          wget_list_browse(list, (wget_list_browse_t)print_elem, NULL);
       }

   void wget_list_free (wget_list_t ** list)
       Parameters
           list Pointer to Pointer to a double linked list

       Freeing the list and it's entry.
