ping_iterator_get(3)               liboping               ping_iterator_get(3)

NAME
       ping_iterator_get, ping_iterator_next - Iterate over all hosts of a
       liboping object

SYNOPSIS
         #include <oping.h>

         pingobj_iter_t *ping_iterator_get (pingobj_t *obj);
         pingobj_iter_t *ping_iterator_next (pingobj_iter_t *iter)

DESCRIPTION
       These two functions can be used to iterate over all hosts associated
       with a liboping object. You can use these methods as follows:

         pingobj_iter_t *iter;

         for (iter = ping_iterator_get (obj);
              iter != NULL;
              iter = ping_iterator_next (iter))
         {
           ...;
         }

       To get usable information from an iterator object (which is also an
       opaque data type, just like the liboping object itself) use
       ping_iterator_get_info(3) and ping_iterator_get_context(3).

RETURN VALUE
       The ping_iterator_get returns an iterator for obj or NULL if no host is
       associated with obj.

       The ping_iterator_next returns an iterator for the host following iter
       or NULL if the last host has been reached.
