ping_iterator_get(3) - Linux man page
Name
ping_iterator_get, ping_iterator_next - Iterate over all hosts of a liboping object
Synopsis
#include <oping.h> pingobj_iter_t *ping_iterator_get (pingobj_t *obj); pingobj_iter_t *ping_iterator_next (pingobj_iter_t *iter)
Description
These two functions can be used to iterate over all hosts associated with a liboping object. You can use these methods as follows:
pingobj_iter_t *iter;
for (iter = ping_iterator_get (obj);
iter != NULL;
iter = ping_iterator_next (iter))
{
...;
}To get usable information from an iterator object (which is also an opaque data type, just like the liboping object itself) use
ping_iterator_get_info(3) and ping_iterator_get_context(3).
Return Value
The ping_iterator_get returns an iterator for obj or NULL if no host is associated with obj.
The ping_iterator_next returns an iterator for the host following iter or NULL if the last host has been reached.
