From: Linus Torvalds Date: Tue, 21 Aug 2012 22:51:34 +0000 (-0700) Subject: Add helper 'for_each_dive()' dive iterator X-Git-Url: http://git.tdb.fi/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=666538ec7739fe839623bd1b6f9f80ff884ad5a9;hp=666538ec7739fe839623bd1b6f9f80ff884ad5a9;p=ext%2Fsubsurface.git Add helper 'for_each_dive()' dive iterator It's an easy thing to do, but the for-loop ends up being pretty ugly, so hide it behind the macro. It would be even prettier with one of the (few) useful C99 features: local for-loop variables. However, gcc needs special command line options, and other compilers may not do it at all. So instead of doing #define for_each_dive(_x) \ for (int _i = 0; ((_x) = get_dive(_i)) != NULL; _i++) we require that the user declare the index iterator too, and the use syntax becomes for_each_dive(idx, dive) { ... use idx/dive here ... } And hey, maybe somebody actually will want to use the index, so maybe that's not all bad.
