Function Documentation

CMRsort()

CMR_ERROR CMRsort	(	CMR *	cmr,
		size_t	length,
		void *	array,
		size_t	elementSize,
		int(*)(const void *, const void *)	compare
	)

Sorts an array.

The user must provide a compare function that is called several times with pointers into the first array. The arguments must be dereferenced once in order to access the actual element.

Parameters

cmr	CMR environment.
length	Number of elements in both arrays.
array	Pointer to the first element of the array.
elementSize	Size (in bytes) of each element of the array.
compare	Comparison function for comparing two elements.

CMRsort2()

CMR_ERROR CMRsort2	(	CMR *	cmr,
		size_t	length,
		void *	array1,
		size_t	elementSize1,
		void *	array2,
		size_t	elementSize2,
		int(*)(const void **, const void **)	compare
	)

Sorts two arrays simultaneously.

Sorts two arrays using the qsort function from the C library. The user must provide a compare function that is called several times with pointers to pointers into the first array. Hence, the arguments must be dereferenced twice in order to access the actual element.

Parameters

cmr	CMR environment.
length	Number of elements in both arrays.
array1	Pointer to the first element of the first array.
elementSize1	Size (in bytes) of each element of the first array.
array2	Pointer to the first element of the second array.
elementSize2	Size (in bytes) of each element of the second array.
compare	Comparison function for comparing two elements.
