1.4 Generic Data Structures

As Ptolemy does not use templates, our generic lists use the generic pointer technique, with

typedef void * Pointer; 
The most commonly used generic data structure in Ptolemy is SequentialList. Other lists are, as a rule, privately inherited from this class, so that type safety can be preserved. It is possible to insert and retrieve items at either the head or the tail of the list.
