c++ - FIFO implementation
- by Narek
While implementing a FIFO I have used the following structure:
struct Node
{
T info_;
Node* link_;
Node(T info, Node* link=0): info_(info), link_(link)
{}
};
I think this a well known trick for lots of STL containers (for example for List). Is this a good practice? What it means for compiler when you say that Node has a member with a type of it's pointer? Is this a kind of infinite loop?
And finally, if this is a bad practice, how I could implement a better FIFO.
