Doubly-Linked Lists

For some applications, especially those where it is necessary to traverse lists in both directions, doubly-linked lists work much better than singly-linked lists. The dlist class provides doubly-linked lists with the same interface as the generic lists. See section Generic Lists. Thus you can interchange these data structures without having to rewrite your code. The dlist_e elements are derived from the generic list element class but they also include the backwards link fields. The dlist_iter iterator works like the standard glist_iter iterator, and the DECLARE_DLIST_CLASS macro is the same as the DECLARE_LIST_CLASS macro except that it produces doubly-linked lists. All of these things are implemented in the `dlist.h' and `dlist.cc' files.
