# Refactoring `struct Body`

## Current Scheme

**Key**:

- Green: `Body->next`

- Red: `Body->parts`

![next-parts](body-next-parts.svg)

The `Body`s are singly-linked.

## Proposed Scheme

This scheme uses `TAILQ` to group the children.

The `Body`s are doubly-linked.

![children](body-children.svg)

## Sample Code

The sample code mimics an email with lots of nested attachments.

The code recursively dumps the structures.

**To compile**: (with ASAN)

```sh

gcc -Wall -Wextra -Wpedantic -I. -fsanitize=address -o email *.c

```

**To run**:

```sh

./email

```

**Output**:

```

Email: refactoring

Body: apple

    Body: aardvark

    Body: antelope

Body: banana

    Body: baboon

    Body: buffalo

    Body: bat

Body: cherry

    Body: chameleon
