Constructor Detail

EmptyClosableIterator

public EmptyClosableIterator()
Method Detail

hasNext

public boolean hasNext()
Returns false.

Specified by:
hasNext in interface Iterator<Triple>
Returns:
false.

next

public Triple next()
            throws NoSuchElementException
Never returns anything. A call to this will throw NoSuchElementException.

Specified by:
next in interface Iterator<Triple>
Returns:
will not return.
Throws:
NoSuchElementException - always.

remove

public void remove()
Not supported by this implementation. A call to this will throw UnsupportedOperationException.

Specified by:
remove in interface Iterator<Triple>
Throws:
UnsupportedOperationException - always.

close

public boolean close()
Description copied from interface: ClosableIterator
Closes the iterator by freeing any resources that it current holds.

This must be done as soon as possible. Once an iterator is closed none of the operations on a iterator will operate i.e. they will throw an exception.

Specified by:
close in interface ClosableIterator<Triple>
Returns:
true if it was successfully closed.

containsHandler

public boolean containsHandler(GraphHandler012 handler012,
                               GraphHandler201 handler201,
                               GraphHandler120 handler120)
Description copied from interface: ClosableMemIterator
Return true if this iterator contains any of the handlers.

Specified by:
containsHandler in interface ClosableMemIterator<Triple>
Parameters:
handler012 - the 012 handler
handler201 - the 201 handler
handler120 - the 120 handler
Returns:
true if this iterator contains any of the given handlers.
