public abstract class RowIterator
extends Object
implements Iterator<DataRow>

Classes extending this class iterate over the rows of a DataTable. Each DataTable has its specific RowIterator, which returns the rows one by one. A RowIterator must return the rows always in the same order.

Use RowIterators as follows:

     DataTable table = ...;
     for (RowIterator it = table.getRowIterator(); it.hasNext();) {
         DataRow row = it.next();
         ...
     }
 

or, if you don't need access to the iterator:

     DataTable table =...;
     for (DataRow row : table) {
       // access the row here
     }
 

Note, the difference of this class to a generic Iterator<DataRow> is that it does not allow to remove elements.

next

public abstract DataRow next()

Returns the next DataRow.

Specified by:

next in interface Iterator<DataRow>

Returns:

the next row in the DataTable

Throws:

NoSuchElementException - if there are no more rows

remove

public final void remove()

NOT supported by the DataTable iterator! DataTables are immutable read-only objects after their creation. Do not call this method, it will throw an exception.

Specified by:

remove in interface Iterator<DataRow>

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if the remove operation is not supported by this Iterator.
