Detailed Description

template<typename Val>
class gum::ListIterator< Val >

Unsafe but fast iterators for Lists.

Class ListIterator implements iterators for List. However, developers may consider using List<x>::iterator instead of ListIterator<x>.

These iterators are fast but they are unaware of changes within the List. Therefore, if they point to an element that is being deleted from memory by the list, their accessing this element will most probably produce a segmentation fault. Similarly, incrementing or decrementing such an iterator pointing to a deleted element will most certainly produce a mess. So, ListIterator should be used only if you are sure that they will never point to an element that has been removed from the list (a typical use is to iterate over a const List). Whenever you are not sure that this property holds, use ListIteratorSafe<x> or List<x>::iterator_safe. Those iterators are a little bit slower but guarantee that no segmentation fault will ever occur.

Usage example:
// create a list of strings
List<string> list;
list.pushBack ("toto"); list.pushBack ("titi");
// parse all the elements of a list
for ( List<string>::iterator iter = list.begin ();
iter != list.end (); ++iter )
cerr << *iter << endl;
for ( List<string>::iterator iter = list.begin ();
iter != list.end (); iter += 2 ) // step = 2
cerr << *iter << endl;
for ( List<string>::iterator iter = list.begin ();
iter != list.end (); iter = iter + 2 ) // step = 2
cerr << *iter << endl;
for ( List<string>::iterator iter = list.rbegin ();
iter != list.rend (); --iter )
cerr << *iter << endl;
// use member size() of the strings
for ( List<string>::iterator iter = list.begin ();
iter != list.end (); ++iter)
cerr << iter->size() << endl;
Template Parameters
ValThe gum::List values type.
