Function Documentation

◆ mutt_qsort_r()

void mutt_qsort_r ( void *  base,
size_t  nmemb,
size_t  size,
sort_t  compar,
void *  sdata 
)

Sort an array, where the comparator has access to opaque data rather than requiring global variables.

Parameters
baseStart of the array to be sorted
nmembNumber of elements in the array
sizeSize of each array element
comparComparison function, return <0/0/>0 to compare two elements
sdataOpaque argument to pass to compar
Note
This implementation might not be re-entrant: signal handlers and compar must not call mutt_qsort_r().
