Interface ListIterator<E>
- Iterator<E>
- CipherSuiteList.Iterator, ClientCertificateTypeList.Iterator, CompressionMethodList.Iterator, ExtensionList.ExtensionsIterator, X500PrincipalList.Iterator
An extended version of Iterator to support the extra features of Lists. The
elements may be accessed in forward or reverse order, elements may be
replaced as well as removed, and new elements may be inserted, during the
traversal of the list.
A list with n elements provides n+1 iterator positions (the front, the end,
or between two elements). Note that
remove
and
set
operate on the last element returned, whether it was by
next
or
previous
.
void | add(E o) - Insert an element into the list at the current position of the iterator
(optional operation).
|
boolean | hasNext() - Tests whether there are elements remaining in the list in the forward
direction.
|
boolean | hasPrevious() - Tests whether there are elements remaining in the list in the reverse
direction.
|
E | next() - Obtain the next element in the list in the forward direction.
|
int | nextIndex() - Find the index of the element that would be returned by a call to next.
|
E | previous() - Obtain the next element in the list in the reverse direction.
|
int | previousIndex() - Find the index of the element that would be returned by a call to
previous.
|
void | remove() - Remove from the list the element last returned by a call to next or
previous (optional operation).
|
void | set(E o) - Replace the element last returned by a call to next or previous with a
given object (optional operation).

add
public void add(E o)
Insert an element into the list at the current position of the iterator
(optional operation). The element is inserted in between the element that
would be returned by previous and the element that would be returned by
next. After the insertion, a subsequent call to next is unaffected, but
a call to previous returns the item that was added. The values returned
by nextIndex() and previousIndex() are incremented.
o
- the object to insert into the list
hasNext
public boolean hasNext()
Tests whether there are elements remaining in the list in the forward
direction. In other words, next() will not fail with a
NoSuchElementException.
- hasNext in interface Iterator<E>
- true if the list continues in the forward direction
hasPrevious
public boolean hasPrevious()
Tests whether there are elements remaining in the list in the reverse
direction. In other words, previous() will not fail with a
NoSuchElementException.
- true if the list continues in the reverse direction
next
public E next()
Obtain the next element in the list in the forward direction. Repeated
calls to next may be used to iterate over the entire list, or calls to
next and previous may be used together to go forwards and backwards.
Alternating calls to next and previous will return the same element.
- next in interface Iterator<E>
- the next element in the list in the forward direction
nextIndex
public int nextIndex()
Find the index of the element that would be returned by a call to next.
If hasNext() returns false, this returns the list size.
- the index of the element that would be returned by next()
previous
public E previous()
Obtain the next element in the list in the reverse direction. Repeated
calls to previous may be used to iterate backwards over the entire list,
or calls to next and previous may be used together to go forwards and
backwards. Alternating calls to next and previous will return the same
element.
- the next element in the list in the reverse direction
previousIndex
public int previousIndex()
Find the index of the element that would be returned by a call to
previous. If hasPrevious() returns false, this returns -1.
- the index of the element that would be returned by previous()
remove
public void remove()
Remove from the list the element last returned by a call to next or
previous (optional operation). This method may only be called if neither
add nor remove have been called since the last call to next or previous.
- remove in interface Iterator<E>
set
public void set(E o)
Replace the element last returned by a call to next or previous with a
given object (optional operation). This method may only be called if
neither add nor remove have been called since the last call to next or
previous.
o
- the object to replace the element with
