By keeping the link as a object andnot as part of the anchor we are capable of handling link semantics in a muchmore organized way. For example, we can then search for link types among allthe link objects that we have created. Anchorobjects are bound together using Link objects. Each anchor can be thesource or destination of zero, one, or more links from and to otheranchors.Link information can come from many places - two classic examples are theHTML LINK element and the HTTP Link header field.Libwww supports both - the HTML LINK element is handled by the HTML parser and the HTTP Link header fieldis handled by the MIME parser.The Webbot uses the link class to maintain theinformation of the Web that it is seeing when traversing the Web as arobot.This module is implemented by HTLink.c, and it is apart of the  W3C Sample CodeLibrary.*/#ifndef HTLINK_H#define HTLINK_Htypedef struct _HTLink        HTLink;#include "WWWUtil.h"#include "HTMethod.h"#include "HTAnchor.h"/*.Creation and Deletion Methods.These are the methods for crating and deleting new link objects(Create a new Link Object)*/typedef HTAtom *         HTLinkType;typedef enum _HTLinkResult {    HT_LINK_INVALID = -1,    HT_LINK_NONE = 0,    HT_LINK_ERROR,    HT_LINK_OK} HTLinkResult;struct _HTLink {    HTAnchor *          dest;              /* The anchor to which this leads */    HTLinkType          type;                      /* Semantics of this link */    HTMethod            method;            /* Method for this link, e.g. PUT */    HTLinkResult        result;    /* Result of any attempt to get this link */};HTLink * HTLink_new (void);/*(Delete a Link Object)A link can be removed as any other object*/BOOL HTLink_delete (HTLink * link);/*(Remove All Link Information from an Anchor)This is normally a part of deleting anchor objects.*/extern BOOL HTLink_removeAll (HTAnchor * me);/*.Predefined Link Types.Just for ease of use, we define a seet of commonly used link types.
