=head1 NAME

ping_iterator_get, ping_iterator_next - Iterate over all hosts of a liboping object

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  #include <oping.h>

  pingobj_iter_t *ping_iterator_get (pingobj_t *obj);
  pingobj_iter_t *ping_iterator_next (pingobj_iter_t *iter)

=head1 DESCRIPTION

These two functions can be used to iterate over all hosts associated with a
liboping object. You can use these methods as follows:

  pingobj_iter_t *iter;

  for (iter = ping_iterator_get (obj);
       iter != NULL;
       iter = ping_iterator_next (iter))
  {
    ...;
  }

To get usable information from an iterator object (which is also an opaque data
type, just like the liboping object itself) use L<ping_iterator_get_info(3)> and
L<ping_iterator_get_context(3)>.

=head1 RETURN VALUE

The B<ping_iterator_get> returns an iterator for I<obj> or NULL if no host is
associated with I<obj>.

The B<ping_iterator_next> returns an iterator for the host following I<iter> or
NULL if the last host has been reached.
