Functions
Description
The GQueue structure and its associated functions provide a standard queue data structure. Internally, GQueue uses the same data structure as GList to store elements.
The data contained in each element can be either integer values, by using one of the Type Conversion Macros, or simply pointers to any type of data.
To create a new GQueue, use g_queue_new()
.
To initialize a statically-allocated GQueue, use G_QUEUE_INIT or
g_queue_init()
.
To add elements, use g_queue_push_head()
, g_queue_push_head_link()
,
g_queue_push_tail()
and g_queue_push_tail_link()
.
To remove elements, use g_queue_pop_head()
and g_queue_pop_tail()
.
To free the entire queue, use g_queue_free()
.
Functions
g_queue_free ()
void
g_queue_free (GQueue *queue
);
Frees the memory allocated for the GQueue. Only call this function
if queue
was created with g_queue_new()
. If queue elements contain
dynamically-allocated memory, they should be freed first.
If queue elements contain dynamically-allocated memory, you should
either use g_queue_free_full()
or free them manually first.
g_queue_free_full ()
void g_queue_free_full (GQueue *queue
,GDestroyNotify free_func
);
Convenience method, which frees all the memory used by a GQueue, and calls the specified destroy function on every element's data.
Parameters
queue |
a pointer to a GQueue |
|
free_func |
the function to be called to free each element's data |
Since 2.32
g_queue_init ()
void
g_queue_init (GQueue *queue
);
A statically-allocated GQueue must be initialized with this function
before it can be used. Alternatively you can initialize it with
G_QUEUE_INIT. It is not necessary to initialize queues created with
g_queue_new()
.
Since 2.14
g_queue_clear ()
void
g_queue_clear (GQueue *queue
);
Removes all the elements in queue
. If queue elements contain
dynamically-allocated memory, they should be freed first.
Since 2.14
g_queue_get_length ()
guint
g_queue_get_length (GQueue *queue
);
Returns the number of items in queue
.
Since 2.4
g_queue_reverse ()
void
g_queue_reverse (GQueue *queue
);
Reverses the order of the items in queue
.
Since 2.4
g_queue_copy ()
GQueue *
g_queue_copy (GQueue *queue
);
Copies a queue
. Note that is a shallow copy. If the elements in the
queue consist of pointers to data, the pointers are copied, but the
actual data is not.
Since 2.4
g_queue_foreach ()
void g_queue_foreach (GQueue *queue
,GFunc func
,gpointer user_data
);
Calls func
for each element in the queue passing user_data
to the
function.
Parameters
queue |
a GQueue |
|
func |
the function to call for each element's data |
|
user_data |
user data to pass to |

g_queue_find_custom ()
GList * g_queue_find_custom (GQueue *queue
,gconstpointer data
,GCompareFunc func
);
Finds an element in a GQueue, using a supplied function to find the desired element. It iterates over the queue, calling the given function which should return 0 when the desired element is found. The function takes two gconstpointer arguments, the GQueue element's data as the first argument and the given user data as the second argument.

Types and Values
struct GQueue
struct GQueue { GList *head; GList *tail; guint length; };
Contains the public fields of a Queue.
G_QUEUE_INIT
#define G_QUEUE_INIT { NULL, NULL, 0 }
A statically-allocated GQueue must be initialized with this
macro before it can be used. This macro can be used to initialize
a variable, but it cannot be assigned to a variable. In that case
you have to use g_queue_init()
.
