fpGetNext()

Gets the next metadata element from a KVMetadataList. Call this function to iterate through the elements, beginning with the first. KeyView does not guarantee to iterate through metadata elements in any particular order.

Syntax

KVErrorCode(pascal* fpGetNext)(
    const struct tag_KVMetadataList* const pMetadata,
    const KVMetadataElement** const ppMetadataElement);	

Arguments

pMetadata A pointer to a KVMetadataList that you obtained by calling fpGetSubFileMetadataList(). This must be the same KVMetadataList pointer that you are calling fpGetNext() on.
ppMetadataElement A pointer to a const KVMetadataElement pointer. On success, this will point to a KVMetadataElement containing the next metadata element in the list, or be set to NULL if the end of the list has been reached.

Returns

The return value is an error code.

Discussion

After iterating through all of the elements in the list, ppMetadataElement will point to a pointer whose value is NULL.

The KVMetadataElement does not need to be freed, but is only valid while the KVMetadataList has not been freed. Once the KVMetadataList has been freed, all elements associated with it are invalid, and you should not access any of their members.
