RtlIsGenericTableEmptyAvl function (ntddk.h)

The RtlIsGenericTableEmptyAvl routine determines if a generic table is empty.

Syntax

NTSYSAPI BOOLEAN RtlIsGenericTableEmptyAvl(
  [in] PRTL_AVL_TABLE Table
);

Parameters

[in] Table

Pointer to the generic table (RTL_GENERIC_TABLE). The table must have been initialized by calling RtlIsGenericTableEmptyAvl.

Return value

RtlIsGenericTableEmptyAvl returns FALSE if the table contains one or more elements, TRUE otherwise.

Remarks

By default, the operating system uses splay trees to implement generic tables, but the RtlIsGenericTableEmptyAvl routine only works with Adelson-Velsky/Landis (AVL) trees. To configure the generic table routines to use AVL trees instead of splay trees in your driver, insert the following define statement in a common header file before including Ntddk.h:

#define RTL_USE_AVL_TABLES 0

If RTL_USE_AVL_TABLES is not defined, you must use the AVL form of the generic table routines. For example, use the RtlIsGenericTableEmptyAvl routine instead of RtlIsGenericTableEmpty. In the call to RtlIsGenericTableEmptyAvl, the caller must pass a RTL_AVL_TABLE table structure rather than RTL_GENERIC_TABLE.

Callers of RtlIsGenericTableEmptyAvl must be running at ≤ APC_LEVEL if the caller-allocated memory at Table is pageable.
