"Rootless" (doubly linked) lists

Reported by: Domagoj Šarić Owned by: Ion Gaztañaga
Milestone: Boost 1.51.0 Component: intrusive
Version: Boost Development Trunk Severity: Problem
Keywords: Cc:

Description

Please add support for doubly linked lists that do not have a root node. Rather such a container (a thin wrapper around the associated *list_algorithms<> class) would simply hold a pointer to the beginning of the list (or a null for an empty list). This would eliminate the need to actually have an instance of a container...rather *list_algorithms<>::static functions could be used directly on any member of the list w/o "worrying" whether it is a pointer to the root node or an actual contained object...
