class ELIST_ITERATOR;

/**********************************************************************
This module implements list classes and iterators.
The following list types and iterators are provided:

  List type        List Class      Iterator Class     Element Class
  ---------         ----------      --------------      -------------

    Embedded list       ELIST
              ELIST_ITERATOR
              ELIST_LINK
    (Single linked)

    Embedded list       ELIST2
              ELIST2_ITERATOR
              ELIST2_LINK
    (Double linked)

    Cons List           CLIST
              CLIST_ITERATOR
              CLIST_LINK
    (Single linked)

    Cons List           CLIST2
              CLIST2_ITERATOR
              CLIST2_LINK
    (Double linked)

An embedded list is where the list pointers are provided by a generic class.
Data types to be listed inherit from the generic class.  Data is thus linked
in only ONE list at any one time.

A cons list has a separate structure for a "cons cell".  This contains the
list pointer(s) AND a pointer to the data structure held on the list.  A
structure can be on many cons lists at the same time, and the structure does
not need to inherit from any generic class in order to be on the list.

The implementation of lists is very careful about space and speed overheads.
This is why many embedded lists are provided. The same concerns mean that
in-line type coercion is done, rather than use virtual functions.  This is
cumbersome in that each data type to be listed requires its own iterator and
list class - though macros can generate these.  It also prevents heterogeneous
lists.

  ELISTIZE(CLASSNAME) MACRO
  ============================

CLASSNAME is assumed to be the name of a class which has a baseclass of
ELIST_LINK.

NOTE:  Because we don't use virtual functions in the list code, the list code
will NOT work correctly for classes derived from this.

The macros generate:
  - An element deletion function:      CLASSNAME##_zapper
  - An E_LIST subclass: CLASSNAME##_LIST
  - An E_LIST_ITERATOR subclass:       CLASSNAME##_IT

NOTE: Generated names are DELIBERATELY designed to clash with those for
ELIST2IZE but NOT with those for CLISTIZE and CLIST2IZE

Two macros are provided: ELISTIZE and ELISTIZEH.
The ...IZEH macros just define the class names for use in .h files
The ...IZE macros define the code use in .c files
