Use a typedef - to hide the interior of Heap_ - in the implementation file. This is how data hiding can be done in C.

void HEAPdestroy |

Destroy the heap
The heap is destroyed - that is, all dynamically allocated memory occupied by the elements - will be destroyed. It is the user-defined callback function destroy, given as an argument to HEAPinit(), that is responsible for freeing dynamically allocated element data, when this function is called. If, on the other hand, destroy is set to NULL when HEAPinit() is called, all element data will be left untouched after the heap is dismounted and destroyed. When all elements and data have been deallocated - the rest of the heap is freed, too.
- Parameters
-
[in] | hp | - a reference to current heap. |
- Returns
- Nothing.

Remove data from the top of the heap
When called, the 2nd parameter of this function, data, should reference an (external, user-defined) pointer. After the call - this referenced, external pointer has been redirected by this function, to point to the data of the removed element - if the call was succesful. The caller is responsible for the future of this memory - deallocating it, if needed, for example.
- Parameters
-
[in] | hp | - reference to current heap. |
[out] | data | - reference to a pointer. After the call, this referenced pointer has been redirected to point to the data of the removed element - if the call was successful. The caller is responsible for the future of this memory - deallocating it, for example. |
- Returns
- Value 0 – if the call was OK - that is, element removed.
Value -1 – otherwise.

Initiate the heap
- Parameters
-
[in] | compare | - a reference to a user-defined function, used by various heap operations to compare elements when operating on the heap. This function should return +1 - if key1 > key2 - 0 if the keys are equal - and -1 if key1 < key2. This goes for a top-heavy heap. If you want a bottom-heavy heap, you should swap the the conditions for returning 1 and -1 instead. |
[in] | destroy | - a reference to a user-defined function, reponsible for freeing element data, when the heap is destroyed. If destroy is set to NULL - then element data will be left untouched upon heap destruction. |
- Returns
- A reference - to a new, empty heap - if dynamic memory allocation for the ADT was successful - or NULL otherwise. Take really good care of this return value, since it will be needed as a parameter in subsequent calls - to the majority of other heap functions in this function interface - i.e. a sort of "handle" to the heap.

Insert data into the heap
Inserts an element into the current heap - referenced by the parameter hp. The data to be inserted, is referenced by parameter data. It is the responsability of the caller to ensure, that this memory is valid as long as it is present in the heap.
- Parameters
-
[in] | hp | - a reference to current heap. |
[in] | data | - a reference to data to be inserted into the heap. |
- Returns
- Value 0 - if insertion was succesful
Value -1 - otherwise.

Inspect the top-priority element of the heap
- Parameters
-
[in] | hp | - a reference to the current heap. |
- Returns
- A reference to the top-priority element of the current heap.

Print heap data on screen
- Parameters
-
[in] | hp | - reference to current heap. |
[in] | callback | - reference to user-defined callback function, that gets read access to element data via its parameter data - to do whatever is relevant. In this case it is a matter of formatting data for printing on screen. The printed data should be kept to a minimum (the key value, for example) in order not to clutter the screen. This function is primarily for small heaps - and debugging purposes. |
- Returns
- Nothing.

Get the size of the heap
- Parameters
-
[in] | hp | - a reference to the current heap. |
- Returns
- The size, that is, the number of elements in the heap.
