Search a linked list for a node with equivalent data.
#include <linklist/linklist.h>DLLNode dll_search_node( DLinkList ull, void *data, int (*cmp)(const void *,const void *) );
DLinkList ull
- the list to search
void *data
- the data to search for
int (*cmp)(const void *,const void *)
- The address of a comparison function. Set to
DLL_NULL_CMP
to use the list's initial comparison function.
This searchs the list for the node for which the passed data compares equivalently with the node's data. It uses the passed comparison routine, if available. If not, it uses that with which the list was initialized. If that is not available, a segmentation violation is unavoidable. In the former case the passed data need nothave the same form as the data stored in the node.
The comparison routine is called with the passed data as the first argument and the node's data as the second argument. It must return ‘-1’, ‘0’, or ‘1’ if, respectively, the first argument is less than, equal to, or greater than the second.
It returns a handle to the matching mode, or NULL
if not found.
