Class NiceIterator

java.lang.Object
  com.hp.hpl.jena.util.iterator.NiceIterator

All Implemented Interfaces:

ClosableIterator, ExtendedIterator, Iterator

Direct Known Subclasses:

MapFilterIterator, NullIterator, SingletonIterator, WrappedIterator

public class NiceIterator
extends Object
implements ExtendedIterator

NiceIterator is the standard base class implementing ExtendedIterator. It provides the static methods for andThen, filterKeep and filterDrop; these can be reused from any other class. It defines equivalent instance methods for descendants and to satisfy ExtendedIterator.

Method Summary

ExtendedIterator	andThen(ClosableIterator other) make a new iterator, which is us then the other chap.
static ExtendedIterator	andThen(Iterator a, Iterator b) concatenate two closable iterators.
void	close() default close: don't need to do anything.
static void	close(Iterator it) If it is a Closableiterator, close it.
ExtendedIterator	filterDrop(Filter f) make a new iterator, which is our elements that pass the filter
ExtendedIterator	filterKeep(Filter f) make a new iterator, which is our elements that pass the filter
boolean	hasNext() default hasNext: no elements, return false.
ExtendedIterator	mapWith(Map1 map1) make a new iterator which is the elementwise _map1_ of the base iterator.
Object	next() default next: throw an exception.
void	remove() default remove: we have no elements, so we can't remove any.
Object	removeNext() Answer the next object, and remove it.

andThen

public static ExtendedIterator andThen(Iterator a,
                                       Iterator b)

concatenate two closable iterators.

andThen

public ExtendedIterator andThen(ClosableIterator other)

make a new iterator, which is us then the other chap.

Specified by:

andThen in interface ExtendedIterator

filterKeep

public ExtendedIterator filterKeep(Filter f)

make a new iterator, which is our elements that pass the filter

Specified by:

filterKeep in interface ExtendedIterator

filterDrop

public ExtendedIterator filterDrop(Filter f)

make a new iterator, which is our elements that pass the filter

Specified by:

filterDrop in interface ExtendedIterator

mapWith

public ExtendedIterator mapWith(Map1 map1)

make a new iterator which is the elementwise _map1_ of the base iterator.

Specified by:

mapWith in interface ExtendedIterator

close

public static void close(Iterator it)

If it is a Closableiterator, close it. Abstracts away from tests [that were] scattered through the code.
