Red-black trees are difficult to explain without lots of diagrams, so little attempt is made to document this code. However, an excellent discussion can be found in the following book, which was used as the reference for writing this implementation:

Some functions use a comparison function pointer, which is expected to have the following prototype:
int (compare *)( void *payload_a, void *payload_b);Interpretation of comparison function return values:
| Return value | Comparison |
|---|---|
< 0 |
a_a < a_b |
0 |
a_a == a_b |
> 0 |
a_a > a_b |
This project is a component of the mulle-core library. As such you usually will not add or install it
individually, unless you specifically do not want to link against
mulle-core.
Use mulle-sde to add mulle-rbtree to your project:
mulle-sde add github:mulle-c/mulle-rbtreeTo only add the sources of mulle-rbtree with dependency sources use clib:
clib install --out src/mulle-c mulle-c/mulle-rbtreeAdd -isystem src/mulle-c to your CFLAGS and compile all the sources that were downloaded with your project.
Use mulle-sde to build and install mulle-rbtree and all dependencies:
mulle-sde install --prefix /usr/local \
