## Class PositionIterator

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.fop.layoutmgr.PositionIterator

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.util.Iterator<Position>
  Direct Known Subclasses:
    KnuthPossPosIter

      public class PositionIterator
      extends java.lang.Object
      implements java.util.Iterator<Position>

  An iterator over `Position` instances, that is wrapped around another 'parent' `Iterator`. The parent can be either another `PositionIterator`, or an iterator over `KnuthElement`s, for example.
  The `next()` method always returns a `Position`. The `getPos(Object)` method can be overridden in subclasses to take care of obtaining the `LayoutManager` or `Position` from the object returned by the parent iterator's `next()` method.

    Constructor and Description
    `PositionIterator(java.util.Iterator parentIter)` Construct position iterator.

    All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `protected boolean` | `checkNext()`
    `protected void` | `endIter()` end (reset) iterator
    `protected LayoutManager` | `getLM(java.lang.Object nextObj)`
    `LayoutManager` | `getNextChildLM()`
    `protected Position` | `getPos(java.lang.Object nextObj)` Default implementation assumes that the passed `nextObj` is itself a `Position`, and just returns it.

- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### PositionIterator

          public PositionIterator(java.util.Iterator parentIter)

      Construct position iterator.
      Parameters:
        `parentIter` - an iterator to use as parent

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getNextChildLM

          public LayoutManager getNextChildLM()

      Returns:
        layout manager of next child layout manager or null

    - #### getLM

          protected LayoutManager getLM(java.lang.Object nextObj)

      Parameters:
        `nextObj` - next object from which to obtain position
      Returns:
        layout manager

    - #### getPos

          protected Position getPos(java.lang.Object nextObj)

      Default implementation assumes that the passed `nextObj` is itself a `Position`, and just returns it. Subclasses for which this is not the case, must provide a suitable override this method.
      Parameters:
        `nextObj` - next object from which to obtain position
      Returns:
        position of next object.

    - #### checkNext

          protected boolean checkNext()

      Returns:
        true if not at end of sub-sequence with same child layout manager

    - #### endIter

          protected void endIter()

      end (reset) iterator

    - #### hasNext

          public boolean hasNext()

      Specified by:
        `hasNext` in interface `java.util.Iterator<Position>`

    - #### next

          public Position next()
                        throws java.util.NoSuchElementException

      Specified by:
        `next` in interface `java.util.Iterator<Position>`
      Throws:
        `java.util.NoSuchElementException`

    - #### peekNext

          public java.lang.Object peekNext()

      Returns:
        peek at next object

    - #### remove

          public void remove()
                      throws java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException

      Specified by:
        `remove` in interface `java.util.Iterator<Position>`
      Throws:
        `java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException`
