+Linked Lists Overview</title><shortdesc>This document is an overview of doubly linked lists.</shortdesc><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>
+<section id="GUID-BC85DA5B-8918-4668-AB55-7E5689C145FB"><title>Purpose</title> <p>Manipulates a doubly-linked list: an ordered,
+non-indexed list of elements, that can be traversed in both directions. </p> <p>The
+API contains all the necessary functionality for doubly-linked lists. It is
+possible to derive from its classes to add additional features.</p> </section>
+<section id="GUID-110D347E-8D54-4E07-900B-9DD6E4BD1967"><title>Description</title> <p>The API has three key concepts: list
+header (TDblQue), link class (TDblQueLink), and iterator class (TDblQueIter). </p> <p><b>General properties</b> </p> <p>Note the following properties of doubly-linked
+lists:</p> <ul>
+<li id="GUID-C0A25098-7340-59E4-BE7D-2E8C3063CCB0"><p>the list is circular:
+the last element points forward to the head element and the head element points
+back to the last element</p> </li>
+<li id="GUID-869E862F-6DA6-5065-8933-B787C25747CC"><p>elements can be accessed
+through iterating through the list, and added to the start and end of a list,
+but not to the middle </p> </li>
+<li id="GUID-14AEAE92-5DDF-5FEE-AF26-F983AD238365"><p>elements in a linked
+list need not be objects of the same type but ought to be derived from the
+same base class</p> </li>
+</ul> <p><b>List
+header</b> </p> <p>The list header supplies the behaviour for managing a doubly
+linked list of objects. </p> <p>The list header interface is provided by <xref href="GUID-E5E9834A-63CA-3F03-88D3-85B912ADA54C.dita"><apiname>TDblQue</apiname></xref> <codeph>&lt;class
+T&gt;</codeph>. The <codeph>T</codeph> template parameter specifies the type
+of objects in the list.</p> <p><b>Link
+class</b> </p> <p>To be a member of a doubly linked list, an object must contain
+an instance of the link class as a data member.</p> <p>The link class interface
+is provided by <xref href="GUID-603E3D27-6A5C-3E3D-8067-69E44AAACC1B.dita"><apiname>TDblQueLink</apiname></xref>.</p> <p><b>Iterator class </b> </p> <p>The iterator class supplies the behaviour
+for moving through the elements of a list. </p> <p>The iterator class interface
+is provided by <xref href="GUID-46C6F8E4-C7B5-39B2-A9E6-F022A924FF8C.dita"><apiname>TDblQueIter</apiname></xref>. </p> </section>
