49 * Generic loop statement for lists.
50 *
51 * The first argument is the type of the list and its elements (e.g. UcxList).
52 * The structure invariant of the list must be as follows:
53 * <ul>
54 * <li>a first (non-<code>NULL</code>) element</li>
55 * <li>for each element a reference to the <code>next</code> element (the
56 * variable name of the pointer MUST be <code>next</code>)</li>
57 * <li>the last element of the list MUST have the <code>next</code> pointer
58 * set to <code>NULL</code></li>
59 * </ul>
60 *
61 * The second argument is a pointer to the list. In most cases this will be the
62 * pointer to the first element of the list, but it may also be an arbitrary
63 * element of the list. The iteration will then start with that element.
64 *
65 * The third argument is the name of the iteration variable. The scope of
66 * this variable is limited to the <code>UCX_FOREACH</code> statement.
67 *
68 * @param type The type of <b>both</b> the list and the element
69 * @param list The first element of the list
70 * @param elem The variable name of the element
