NextCtree
Change to the next registered c-tree instance.
Short Name
NXTCTREE()
Type
Low-Level function
Declaration
pTEXT NextCtree()
Description
NextCtree() cycles to the next available c-tree instance.
When multiple instances of c-tree are established with RegisterCtree(), control blocks are connected via a link list. The last control block points back to the first. Therefore, a NextCtree() call when the last instance is current results in the first instance becoming current.
Repeated calls to NextCtree() result in continually looping through all c-tree instances. In the example program ctlxmg, the reference name of the first instance is saved to determine the “end-of-instances”.
Return
A successful NextCtree() call returns the pointer to the instance reference name. Each instance reference name, up to 31 bytes and a NULL terminator in length, is originally registered with c-tree using RegisterCtree(). If there are no active instances, a NULL will be returned.
