STRINGLIST(3)						   BSD Library Functions Manual 					     STRINGLIST(3)

NAME

     stringlist, sl_init, sl_add, sl_free, sl_find, sl_delete -- stringlist manipulation functions

LIBRARY

     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <stringlist.h>

     StringList *
     sl_init();

     int
     sl_add(StringList *sl, char *item);

     void
     sl_free(StringList *sl, int freeall);

     char *
     sl_find(StringList *sl, const char *item);

     int
     sl_delete(StringList *sl, const char *item, int freeit);

DESCRIPTION

     The stringlist functions manipulate stringlists, which are lists of strings that extend automatically if necessary.

     The StringList structure has the following definition:

	   typedef struct _stringlist {
		   char    **sl_str;
		   size_t    sl_max;
		   size_t    sl_cur;
	   } StringList;

     where:

	   sl_str  is a pointer to the base of the array containing the list,

	   sl_max  is the size of sl_str, and

	   sl_cur  is the offset in sl_str of the current element.

     The following stringlist manipulation functions are available:

       sl_init()    Create a stringlist.  Returns a pointer to a StringList, or NULL in case of failure.

       sl_free()    Releases memory occupied by sl and the sl->sl_str array.  If freeall is non-zero, then each of the items within sl->sl_str is
		    released as well.

       sl_add()     Add item to sl->sl_str at sl->sl_cur, extending the size of sl->sl_str.  Returns zero upon success, -1 upon failure.

       sl_find()    Find item in sl, returning NULL if it's not found.

       sl_delete()  Remove item from the list.	If freeit is non-zero, the string is freed.  Returns 0 if the name is found and -1 if the name is
		    not found.

SEE ALSO

     free(3), malloc(3)

HISTORY

     The stringlist functions appeared in NetBSD 1.3.
