|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
functions manipulate stringlists, which are lists of
|
|
strings that extend automatically if necessary.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar StringList
|
|
structure has the following definition:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
typedef struct _stringlist {
|
|
char **sl_str;
|
|
size_t sl_max;
|
|
size_t sl_cur;
|
|
} StringList;
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
where:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "sl_str" -offset indent
|
|
.It Ar sl_str
|
|
is a pointer to the base of the array containing the list,
|
|
.It Ar sl_max
|
|
is the size of
|
|
.Ar sl_str ,
|
|
and
|
|
.It Ar sl_cur
|
|
is the offset in
|
|
.Ar sl_str
|
|
of the current element.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following stringlist manipulation functions are available:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "sl_delete()" -offset 2n
|
|
.It Fn sl_init
|
|
Create a stringlist.
|
|
Returns a pointer to a
|
|
.Ar StringList ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
in case of failure.
|
|
.It Fn sl_free
|
|
Releases memory occupied by
|
|
.Ar sl
|
|
and the
|
|
.Ar sl-\*[Gt]sl_str
|
|
array.
|
|
If
|
|
.Ar freeall
|
|
is non-zero, then each of the items within
|
|
.Ar sl-\*[Gt]sl_str
|
|
is released as well.
|
|
.It Fn sl_add
|
|
Add
|
|
.Ar item
|
|
to
|
|
.Ar sl-\*[Gt]sl_str
|
|
at
|
|
.Ar sl-\*[Gt]sl_cur ,
|
|
extending the size of
|
|
.Ar sl-\*[Gt]sl_str .
|
|
Returns zero upon success, \-1 upon failure.
|
|
.It Fn sl_find
|
|
Find
|
|
.Ar item
|
|
in
|
|
.Ar sl ,
|
|
returning
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
if it's not found.
|
|
.It Fn sl_delete
|
|
Remove
|
|
.Ar item
|
|
from the list.
|
|
If
|
|
.Ar freeit
|
|
is non-zero, the string is freed.
|
|
Returns
|
|
.Dv 0
|
|
if the name is found
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv \-1
|
|
if the name is not found.
