Here's a well-structured and professional description for your project: (hehe :v)
This project implements a type-safe, generic doubly linked list in C using macros to generate specialized list structures and functions for different data types. Unlike traditional void*-based generic lists, this approach ensures strong type safety while maintaining flexibility.
✔ Type Safety – Prevents type mismatches by generating unique list types for each data type.
✔ Automatic Function Generation – Macros create optimized list operations (LPush, RPush, LPop, RPop, At).
✔ Efficient Memory Management – Supports custom deallocation functions for pointer-based elements.
✔ Bidirectional Traversal – Doubly linked list structure enables fast access from both ends.
✔ Optimized Indexing – Smart selection of forward or backward traversal for At() lookup.
- Avoids
void*pitfalls – No need for manual type casting when accessing values. - More readable and maintainable – Each list has well-defined operations for its type.
- Better performance – No runtime type checks; everything is resolved at compile time.
DefineLinkedList(int); // Generates int-specific list
int main() {
list_int_t myList = CreateList_int();
myList.LPush(&myList, 42);
int *value = myList.At(&myList, 0);
printf("Value: %d\n", *value); // Output: 42
}Would you like me to refine any part of this? 🚀 (hehe :v)
