Class ChainedRowIterator

java.lang.Object
  org.axiondb.engine.rowiterators.BaseRowIterator
      org.axiondb.engine.rowiterators.ChainedRowIterator

All Implemented Interfaces:

RowIterator

public class ChainedRowIterator
extends BaseRowIterator
implements RowIterator

Chains together one or more RowIterators to make them look like one (similiar to a SQL UNION).

Constructor Summary

ChainedRowIterator()

Method Summary

void	addRowIterator(RowIterator iter)
Row	current() Returns the last Rowreturned by me (by RowIterator.next(),RowIterator.previous(), RowIterator.first(),RowIterator.last(), etc.).
int	currentIndex() Returns the index of the RowIterator.current()row, if any.
boolean	hasCurrent() Returns true if I have a current Row.
boolean	hasNext() Returns true if I have more Rows when traversing the list in the forward direction.
boolean	hasPrevious() Returns true if I have more Rows when traversing the list in the reverse direction.
Row	next() Returns the next Rowin the list, or throws NoSuchElementExceptionif no next Row exists.
int	nextIndex() Returns the index of the RowIterator.next()row, if any, or the number of elements is the iterator if we've reached the end.
Row	previous() Returns the previous Rowin the list, or throws NoSuchElementExceptionif no next Row exists.
int	previousIndex() Returns the index of the RowIterator.previous()row, if any, or -1 if we're add the beginning of the list.
void	remove() Not supported in the base implementation.
void	reset() Re-initialize this RowIterator to its initial state (positioned just before the first Rowin the list).
void	set(Row row) Not supported in the base implementation.
String	toString()

Method Detail

addRowIterator

public void addRowIterator(RowIterator iter)

current

public Row current()

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Returns the last Rowreturned by me (by RowIterator.next(),RowIterator.previous(), RowIterator.first(),RowIterator.last(), etc.).

Specified by:

current in interface RowIterator

Specified by:

current in class BaseRowIterator

hasCurrent

public boolean hasCurrent()

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Returns true if I have a current Row. (In other words, returns true iff RowIterator.current()would return a Rowrather than throwing an exception.)

Specified by:

hasCurrent in interface RowIterator

Specified by:

hasCurrent in class BaseRowIterator

currentIndex

public int currentIndex()

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Returns the index of the RowIterator.current()row, if any.

Specified by:

currentIndex in interface RowIterator

Specified by:

currentIndex in class BaseRowIterator

reset

public void reset()
           throws AxionException

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Re-initialize this RowIterator to its initial state (positioned just before the first Rowin the list).

Specified by:

reset in interface RowIterator

Specified by:

reset in class BaseRowIterator

Throws:

AxionException

next

public Row next()
         throws AxionException

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Returns the next Rowin the list, or throws NoSuchElementExceptionif no next Row exists.

Specified by:

next in interface RowIterator

Specified by:

next in class BaseRowIterator

Throws:

AxionException - when a problem occurs accessing the Row

previous

public Row previous()
             throws AxionException

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Returns the previous Rowin the list, or throws NoSuchElementExceptionif no next Row exists.

Specified by:

previous in interface RowIterator

Specified by:

previous in class BaseRowIterator

Throws:

AxionException - when a problem occurs accessing the Row

hasNext

public boolean hasNext()

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Returns true if I have more Rows when traversing the list in the forward direction. (In other words, returns true iff RowIterator.next()would return a Rowrather than throwing an exception.)

Specified by:

hasNext in interface RowIterator

Specified by:

hasNext in class BaseRowIterator

hasPrevious

public boolean hasPrevious()

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Returns true if I have more Rows when traversing the list in the reverse direction. (In other words, returns true iff RowIterator.previous()would return a Rowrather than throwing an exception.)

Specified by:

hasPrevious in interface RowIterator

Specified by:

hasPrevious in class BaseRowIterator

nextIndex

public int nextIndex()

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Returns the index of the RowIterator.next()row, if any, or the number of elements is the iterator if we've reached the end.

Specified by:

nextIndex in interface RowIterator

Specified by:

nextIndex in class BaseRowIterator

previousIndex

public int previousIndex()

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Returns the index of the RowIterator.previous()row, if any, or -1 if we're add the beginning of the list.

Specified by:

previousIndex in interface RowIterator

Specified by:

previousIndex in class BaseRowIterator

set in interface RowIterator

Overrides:

set in class BaseRowIterator
