Source position: exec.pas line 1254
function FindName( |
List: PList; |
const Name: PChar |
):PNode; |
List |
|
A list or a list node to start the search (if node, this one is skipped) |
Name |
|
Node name to find in the list |
A pointer to the node with the same name else nil to indicate that the string was not found.
Search a system list for a node with the given name. To find multiple occurrences of a string, this function may be called with a different node starting point.
No arbitration is done for access to the list! If multiple tasks access the same list, an arbitration mechanism such as SignalSemaphores must be used.
