Class ExpandingSubLevelIterator<T1,T2>

java.lang.Object
com.saperion.common.lang.iterator.ExpandingSubLevelIterator<T1,T2>
Type Parameters:
T1 - type of input objects of the main iterator
T2 - type of output objects and of the sub level iterators
All Implemented Interfaces:
Iterator<T2>

public final class ExpandingSubLevelIterator<T1,T2> extends Object implements Iterator<T2>

An ExpandingSubLevelIterator iterates through the sub level nodes of a virtual two level data structure.

It iterates through the objects of the specified main iterator. For each such main level object a call to the specified IteratorResolver is executed to get an iterator for the optional virtual sub elements. If such an iterator is found, all the sub elements will be iterated through.

Then, the main iterator will step to the next main object and its sub elements and so on.

Iterator.remove() is not supported.
