All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable, LastPositionFinder, FocusIterator, SequenceIterator, GroundedIterator, LookaheadIterator, ReversibleIterator

Direct Known Subclasses:

public abstract class ListIterator

implements SequenceIterator, FocusIterator, LastPositionFinder, LookaheadIterator, GroundedIterator, ReversibleIterator

Class ListIterator, iterates over a sequence of items held in a Java List.

Note: There are three subclasses: ListIterator, which takes a general list of items, NodeListIterator, which takes a list of nodes, and AtomicListIterator, which takes a list of atomic values. It might seem simpler to implement this entirely using generics, but that design proves very difficult to translate to C#, where generics behave very differently. With this approach the generics are confined to this abstract class.

Nested Class Summary

Nested Classes

Modifier and Type	Class	Description
static class	ListIterator.Of<T extends Item>
static class	ListIterator.OfAtomic<A extends AtomicValue>	ListIterator.OfAtomic is a subclass of ListIterator where the list always contains atomic values; it therefore implements the AtomicIterator interface.

Method Details

supportsHasNext

public boolean supportsHasNext()

Description copied from interface: LookaheadIterator

Ask whether the hasNext() method can be called. This method must be called before calling hasNext(), because some iterators implement this interface, but only support look-ahead under particular circumstances (this is usually because they delegate to another iterator)

Specified by:

supportsHasNext in interface LookaheadIterator

Returns:

true if the LookaheadIterator.hasNext() method is available
