The void* version will let you use any type, * but remember that you are responsible for casting and maintaining * your own type safety. I have found the unsigned int version to be * very useful because if you have a map somewhere that associates * unique identifier numbers to data (e.g. OpenGL displaylists/textures), * then you can just deal with the id numbers and don't have to deal with * the casting and typesafety issues. I recommend you don't overlook the * usefulness of this version. * * @warning Do not mix the CircularQueues created from the different versions. * They are incompatible. Use only CircularQueueUnsignedInt objects with * CircularQueueUnsignedInt_* functions, etc. * * Example Usage: * @code * CircularQueueUnsignedInt* myqueue; * unsigned int ret_val; * * myqueue = CircularQueueUnsignedInt_CreateQueue(3); * if(NULL == myqueue) * { * fprintf(stderr, "Error, could not create queue\n"); * return 0; * } * * * ret_val = CircularQueueUnsignedInt_PushBack(myqueue, 1); * ret_val = CircularQueueUnsignedInt_PushBack(myqueue, 2); * ret_val = CircularQueueUnsignedInt_PushBack(myqueue, 3); * if(0 == ret_val) * { * fprintf(stderr, "Error, Could not pushback\n"); * exit(1); * } * * ret_val = CircularQueueUnsignedInt_PopBack(myqueue); * if(0 == ret_val) * { * fprintf(stderr, "Error, Could not popback\n"); * exit(2); * } * * fprintf(stderr, "Testing queue, should have 1,2\n"); * CircularQueueUnsignedInt_Print(myqueue); * * ret_val = CircularQueueUnsignedInt_PushFront(myqueue, 4); * if(0 == ret_val) * { * fprintf(stderr, "Error, Could not pushfront\n"); * exit(1); * } * fprintf(stderr, "Testing queue, should have 4,1,2\n"); * CircularQueueUnsignedInt_Print(myqueue); * * @endcode */ /** * This is the essentially the CircularQueue object. * This contains all the data associated with a CircularQueue instance. * This version is for unsigned int data types.
