nutscan_ip_ranges_iter_init - Man Page

Begin iteration of an IP address range using a `nutscan_ip_range_list_iter_t` structure​.

Synopsis

        #include <nut-scan​.h>

        char * nutscan_ip_ranges_iter_init(
                nutscan_ip_range_list_iter_t *irliter,
                const nutscan_ip_range_list_t *irl);

Description

The nutscan_ip_ranges_iter_init() function can prepare an iterator from the specified nutscan_ip_range_list_t structure, saving it into the caller-provided nutscan_ip_range_list_iter_t helper object​.

Different iterators may be created to walk the same nutscan_ip_range_list_t list from different scans independently, but the list and its contents should not be freed while anyone references it​.

This function skips work if:

Returns the first IP address from the first registered IP address range​. Subsequent addresses can be returned by nutscan_ip_ranges_iter_inc()​. The caller SHOULD NOT free this string while iterating​.

Notes

Technically, the function is currently defined in nutscan-ip​.h file​.
