20 * Where mozilla::LinkedList strives for ease of use above all other
21 * considerations, mozilla::DoublyLinkedList strives for flexibility. The
22 * following are things that can be done with mozilla::DoublyLinkedList that
23 * cannot be done with mozilla::LinkedList:
25 * * Arbitrary next/prev placement and naming. With the tools provided here,
26 * the next and previous pointers can be at the end of the structure, in a
27 * sub-structure, stored with a tag, in a union, wherever, as long as you
28 * can look them up and set them on demand.
29 * * Can be used without deriving from a new base and, thus, does not require
30 * use of constructors.
32 * Example:
34 * class Observer : public DoublyLinkedListElement<Observer>
35 * {
36 * public:
37 * void observe(char* aTopic) { ... }
38 * };
40 * class ObserverContainer
41 * {
42 * private:
43 * DoublyLinkedList<Observer> mList;
45 * public:
46 * void addObserver(Observer* aObserver)
47 * {
48 * // Will assert if |aObserver| is part of another list.
49 * mList.pushBack(aObserver);
50 * }
52 * void removeObserver(Observer* aObserver)
53 * {
54 * // Will assert if |aObserver| is not part of |list|.
55 * mList.remove(aObserver);
56 * }
58 * void notifyObservers(char* aTopic)
59 * {
60 * for (Observer* o : mList) {
61 * o->observe(aTopic);
62 * }
63 * }
64 * };
