/**
 * SECTION: iter
 * @title: Iterator
 * @short_description: unified iterator
 *
 * The iterator keeps the direction and the last position for access to the
 * internal library tables/lists.
 *
 * It's very unusual to use the same iterator on multiple places in your
 * application or share the same iterator, for this purpose libfdisk does not
 * provide reference counting for this object. It's recommended to initialize
 * the iterator by fdisk_new_iter() at begin of your function and then
 * fdisk_free_iter() before you return from the function. 
 *
 * Don't forget to call fdisk_reset_iter() if you want to use the iterator more
 * than once.
