Constructs a new SingletonListIterator.
Params:
  • object – the single object to return from the iterator
/** * Constructs a new <code>SingletonListIterator</code>. * * @param object the single object to return from the iterator */
public SingletonListIterator(Object object) { super(); this.object = object; }
Is another object available from the iterator?

This returns true if the single object hasn't been returned yet.

Returns:true if the single object hasn't been returned yet
/** * Is another object available from the iterator? * <p> * This returns true if the single object hasn't been returned yet. * * @return true if the single object hasn't been returned yet */
public boolean hasNext() { return beforeFirst && !removed; }
Is a previous object available from the iterator?

This returns true if the single object has been returned.

Returns:true if the single object has been returned
/** * Is a previous object available from the iterator? * <p> * This returns true if the single object has been returned. * * @return true if the single object has been returned */
public boolean hasPrevious() { return !beforeFirst && !removed; }
Returns the index of the element that would be returned by a subsequent call to next.
Returns:0 or 1 depending on current state.
/** * Returns the index of the element that would be returned by a subsequent * call to <tt>next</tt>. * * @return 0 or 1 depending on current state. */
public int nextIndex() { return (beforeFirst ? 0 : 1); }
Returns the index of the element that would be returned by a subsequent call to previous. A return value of -1 indicates that the iterator is currently at the start.
Returns:0 or -1 depending on current state.
/** * Returns the index of the element that would be returned by a subsequent * call to <tt>previous</tt>. A return value of -1 indicates that the iterator is currently at * the start. * * @return 0 or -1 depending on current state. */

Get the next object from the iterator.

This returns the single object if it hasn't been returned yet.

Throws:
Returns:the single object
/** * Get the next object from the iterator. * <p> * This returns the single object if it hasn't been returned yet. * * @return the single object * @throws NoSuchElementException if the single object has already * been returned */
public Object next() { if (!beforeFirst || removed) { throw new NoSuchElementException(); } beforeFirst = false; nextCalled = true; return object; }
Get the previous object from the iterator.

This returns the single object if it has been returned.

Throws:
Returns:the single object
/** * Get the previous object from the iterator. * <p> * This returns the single object if it has been returned. * * @return the single object * @throws NoSuchElementException if the single object has not already * been returned */
public Object previous() { if (beforeFirst || removed) { throw new NoSuchElementException(); } beforeFirst = true; return object; }
Remove the object from this iterator.
Throws:
  • IllegalStateException – if the next or previous method has not yet been called, or the remove method has already been called after the last call to next or previous.
/** * Remove the object from this iterator. * @throws IllegalStateException if the <tt>next</tt> or <tt>previous</tt> * method has not yet been called, or the <tt>remove</tt> method * has already been called after the last call to <tt>next</tt> * or <tt>previous</tt>. */
public void remove() { if(!nextCalled || removed) { throw new IllegalStateException(); } else { object = null; removed = true; } }
Add always throws UnsupportedOperationException.
Throws:
/** * Add always throws {@link UnsupportedOperationException}. * * @throws UnsupportedOperationException always */
public void add(Object obj) { throw new UnsupportedOperationException("add() is not supported by this iterator"); }
Set sets the value of the singleton.
Params:
  • obj – the object to set
Throws:
/** * Set sets the value of the singleton. * * @param obj the object to set * @throws IllegalStateException if <tt>next</tt> has not been called * or the object has been removed */
public void set(Object obj) { if (!nextCalled || removed) { throw new IllegalStateException(); } this.object = obj; }
Reset the iterator back to the start.
/** * Reset the iterator back to the start. */
public void reset() { beforeFirst = true; nextCalled = false; } }
