Constructor Detail

ConvertingIterator

public ConvertingIterator(Iterator<? extends S> iter)

Creates a new ConvertingIterator that operates on the supplied source type itertor.

Parameters:

iter - The source type itertor for this ConvertingIterator, must not be null.

Method Detail

convert

protected abstract T convert(S sourceObject)

Converts a source type object to a target type object.

hasNext

public boolean hasNext()

Checks whether the source type itertor contains more elements.

Specified by:

hasNext in interface Iterator<T>

Returns:

true if the source type itertor contains more elements, false otherwise.

next

public T next()

Returns the next element from the source type itertor.

Specified by:

next in interface Iterator<T>

Throws:

NoSuchElementException - If all elements have been returned.

IllegalStateException - If the itertor has been closed.

remove

public void remove()

Calls remove() on the underlying itertor.

Specified by:

remove in interface Iterator<T>

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - If the wrapped itertor does not support the remove operation.

IllegalStateException - If the itertor has been closed, or if next() has not yet been called, or remove() has already been called after the last call to next().
