SymFindPrev Function (ROM Call 0x6E)

vat.h

SYM_ENTRY *SymFindPrev (void);

Finds the previous entry in the VAT table.

SymFindPrev is very similar to SymFindNext, but instead of the next entry in the VAT, SymFindPrev searches for the previous entry in the VAT.

Normally the only routine used with SymFindFirst is SymFindNext, but this routine allows a program to traverse the symbol table in both directions. For example, the VAR-LINK dialog uses this routine to present a scrollable list of all symbols without having to maintain a separate list in memory.
