NAME
AddSorted - add a node to a list in alphabetical order
SYNOPSIS
AddSorted(list, node)
A0 A1
void AddSorted(struct List *, struct Node *);
FUNCTION
This function adds a Node to a List, in alphabetical order based on
ln_Name.
INPUTS
list - List to add Node to
node - Node to add
RESULT
The node is inserted in the list in its alphabetical position.
ALL the nodes in the list must have a valid ln_Name, or this routine
will cause enforcer hits.
NOTES
This routine uses a simple insertion sort based on strcmpi(). As such,
it is neither terrible efficient, or locale-sensitive.

NAME
Att_ChangeNodeName - change the name of a node
SYNOPSIS
Att_ChangeNodeName(node, name)
A0 A1
void Att_ChangeNodeName(Att_Node *, char *);
FUNCTION
Frees the old name of the node and copies the new name.
INPUTS
node - Att_Node to change name for
name - new name of the node
RESULT
The new name is copied and installed.

NAME
Att_FindNode - find a node by number
SYNOPSIS
Att_FindNode(list, number)
A0 D0
Att_Node *Att_FindNode(Att_List *, long);
FUNCTION
This routine finds the specified node in the list and returns a
pointer to it.
INPUTS
list - list to search
number - cardinal number of the node to find
RESULT
Returns the specified Att_Node or NULL if not found.
NOTES
This routine can also work on normal Lists with proper type-casting.

NAME
Att_FindNodeData - find a node by its data
SYNOPSIS
Att_FindNodeData(list, data)
A0 D0
Att_Node *Att_FindNodeData(Att_List *, ULONG);
FUNCTION
This function searches the list for a node with data that matches
the supplied ULONG value (the data is specified with the Att_NewNode()
function).
INPUTS
list - list to search
data - data to look for
RESULT
Returns the Att_Node if found, otherwise NULL.

NAME
Att_FindNodeNumber - find cardinal number of a node
SYNOPSIS
Att_FindNodeNumber(list, node)
A0 A1
long Att_FindNodeNumber(Att_List *, Att_Node *);
FUNCTION
This routine searches the list for the specified node, and returns
the offset from the beginning of the list.
INPUTS
list - list to search
node - node to look for
RESULT
Returns the cardinal number of the node or -1 if not found.
NOTES
This routine can also work on normal Lists with proper type-casting.

NAME
Att_NewList - create a new list
SYNOPSIS
Att_NewList(flags)
D0
Att_List *Att_NewList(ULONG);
FUNCTION
Creates a new Att_List structure, which you use in conjunction with
Att_Nodes. These functions provide a convenient way of dynamically
allocating members of lists and performing searches and sorts on them.
INPUTS
flags - control flags. Currently valid values are :
LISTF_LOCK - list is to be shared and requires locking
LISTF_POOL - use memory pooling for nodes and names
If you specify LISTF_LOCK, a semaphore will be initialised for
this list. Any of the list management functions in the
dopus5.library will lock the semaphore before accessing the
list.
If you specify LISTF_POOL, a small memory pool will be used
to allocate list nodes and node names, which can result in
greater speed and less memory fragmentation.
RESULT
Returns pointer to an Att_List structure or NULL for failure.

NAME
Att_NewNode - add a new node to a list
SYNOPSIS
Att_NewNode(list, name, data, flags)
A0 A1 D0 D1
Att_Node *Att_NewNode(Att_List *, char *, ULONG, ULONG);
FUNCTION
This routine allocates a new node and adds it to the specified list.
It can also allocate and copy a name for the node, and store
user-defined data with it. The new node can be added to the list
sorted in several ways.
INPUTS
list - list to add node to
name - name for the node (will be copied)
data - user-defined data for the node
flags - control flags. Currently valid flags are:
ADDNODEF_SORT - sort names alphabetically
ADDNODEF_EXCLUSIVE - name must be exclusive; if a node
already exists with this name, the
call will fail. Only works in
conjunction with ADDNODEF_SORT.
ADDNODEF_NUMSORT - the node name is taken to be an
ascii string containing a number,
and the sort is based on numerical
order rather than ascii order (so
that 10 would come after 1 rather
than before).
ADDNODEF_PRI - sort is based on priority. If you
specify this flag, the 'data'
parameter is taken to be the node's
priority.
If no sorting flags are specified, the node is added to the
end of the list.
RESULT
If successful, the new Att_Node is returned.

A0
long Att_NodeCount(Att_List *);
FUNCTION

NOTES
This routine can also work on normal Lists with proper type-casting.
SEE ALSO

NAME
Att_NodeDataNumber - find cardinal number of a node
SYNOPSIS
Att_NodeDataNumber(list, data)
A0 D0
long Att_NodeDataNumber(Att_List *, ULONG);
FUNCTION
This routine is similar to Att_FindNodeNumber(), except that it takes
a ULONG value and searches the list for a node with that value as
it's 'data' (the data specified in the call to Att_NewNode).
INPUTS
list - list to search
data - node data to look for
RESULT
Returns the Att_Node if found, or NULL.

NAME
Att_NodeName - find a node name by number
SYNOPSIS
Att_NodeName(list, number)
A0 D0
char *Att_NodeName(Att_List *, long);
FUNCTION
This routine is similar to Att_FindNode() except that it returns
a pointer to the node's name rather than the node itself.
INPUTS
list - list to search
number - cardinal number of the node to find
RESULT
Returns a pointer to the node's name, or NULL if not found.
NOTES
This routine can also work on normal Lists with proper type-casting.
SEE ALSO

NAME
Att_NodeNumber - find cardinal number of node by name
SYNOPSIS
Att_NodeNumber(list, name)
A0 A1
long Att_NodeNumber(Att_List *, char *);
FUNCTION
This routine is similar to Att_FindNodeNumber(), except that you
specify a name to search for rather than a node pointer.
INPUTS
list - list to search
name - name of node to search for
RESULT
Returns the cardinal number of the node or -1 if not found.
NOTES
This routine can also work on normal Lists with proper type-casting.
The search is not case-sensitive.

NAME
Att_PosNode - reposition an Att_Node in an Att_List
SYNOPSIS
Att_PosNode(list, node, before)
A0 A1 A2
void Att_PosNode(Att_List *, Att_Node *, Att_Node *);
FUNCTION
This routine removes an Att_Node from its current position and
re-inserts it in the list in a new position.
INPUTS
list - Att_List containing node
node - Att_Node to reposition
before - Att_Node to re-insert the node before
RESULT
The node is inserted in the list before the supplied node.

NAME
Att_RemList - free an entire Att_List
SYNOPSIS
Att_RemList(list, flags)
A0 D0
void Att_RemList(Att_List *, long);
FUNCTION
This function releases all the memory used by an Att_List, including
freeing all of the Att_Nodes attached to it.
INPUTS
list - Att_List to free
flags - control flags. Current flag values are :
REMLISTF_FREEDATA - If you specify this flag, the data
pointers of each of the nodes will
be automatically freed with FreeVec().
Therefore, if you use this feature,
the data you supply to Att_NewNode()
MUST have been allocated with
AllocVec().
REMLISTF_SAVELIST - If you specify this flag, only the
nodes of the list will be freed. The
Att_List itself will be reinitialised,
ready for use.
RESULT
The list nodes and optionally the list itself is freed.

NAME
Att_RemNode - remove a node from a list
SYNOPSIS
Att_RemNode(node)
A0
void Att_RemNode(Att_Node *);
FUNCTION
This function removes the specified node from its list, and frees
the name copy and node structure.

struct Node *FindNameI(struct List *, char *);
FUNCTION
This routine is similar to the exec.library/FindName routine, except
that the comparison used in FindNameI() is not case-sensitive.
INPUTS
list - list to search
name - name to search for
RESULT
Returns pointer to the node if found, otherwise NULL.
SEE ALSO

dopus5.library/GetSemaphore dopus5.library/GetSemaphore
NAME
GetSemaphore - lock a semaphore
SYNOPSIS
GetSemaphore(semaphore, flags, unused)
A0 D0 A1
long GetSemaphore(struct SignalSemaphore *, long, APTR);
FUNCTION
This routine locks or attempts to lock the given Semaphore. This
routine fixes some bugs that the exec.library Semaphore routines
have under some versions of the OS.
INPUTS
semaphore - Semaphore to lock
flags - control flags. Valid flags are :
SEMF_SHARED - lock in shared mode
SEMF_EXCLUSIVE - lock in exclusive mode
SEMF_ATTEMPT - only attempt to lock
unused - must be NULL
RESULT
Returns TRUE if the Semaphore was successfully locked. If SEMF_ATTEMPT
is not specified, this routine will block until the Semaphore is
available, and will always return TRUE.
NOTES
To unlock a Semaphore locked with this function, use the standard
exec.library ReleaseSemaphore() call.

The list is unlocked. Calls to LockAttList() are nested, so you must
unlock the list as many times as you locked it.
