import java.util.Iterator;

* A specialized iterator implementation used by AbstractConfiguration to return an iteration over all keys starting with a specified prefix.

This class is basically a stripped-down version of the FilterIterator class of Commons Collections

Stores the wrapped iterator.

Creates a new instance of PrefixedKeysIterator and sets the wrapped iterator and the prefix for the accepted keys.
Params:
  • wrappedIterator – the wrapped iterator
  • keyPrefix – the prefix of the allowed keys
/** * Creates a new instance of {@code PrefixedKeysIterator} and sets * the wrapped iterator and the prefix for the accepted keys. * * @param wrappedIterator the wrapped iterator * @param keyPrefix the prefix of the allowed keys */

Returns a flag whether there are more elements in the iteration.
Returns:a flag if there is a next element
/** * Returns a flag whether there are more elements in the iteration. * * @return a flag if there is a next element */
public boolean hasNext() { return nextElementSet || setNextElement(); }
Returns the next element in the iteration. This is the next key that matches the specified prefix.
Throws:
Returns:the next element in the iteration
/** * Returns the next element in the iteration. This is the next key that * matches the specified prefix. * * @return the next element in the iteration * @throws NoSuchElementException if there is no next element */

Removes from the underlying collection of the base iterator the last element returned by this iterator. This method can only be called if next() was called, but not after hasNext(), because the hasNext() call changes the base iterator.
Throws:
/** * Removes from the underlying collection of the base iterator the last * element returned by this iterator. This method can only be called if * {@code next()} was called, but not after {@code hasNext()}, * because the {@code hasNext()} call changes the base iterator. * * @throws IllegalStateException if {@code hasNext()} has already * been called. */

Determines the next element in the iteration. The return value indicates whether such an element can be found.
Returns:a flag whether a next element exists
