Class EmptyListIterator<E>

  • Type Parameters:
    E - the type of elements returned by this iterator.
    All Implemented Interfaces:

    public class EmptyListIterator<E>
extends java.lang.Object
implements ResettableListIterator<E>
    Provides an implementation of an empty list iterator.

    This class provides an implementation of an empty list iterator. This class provides for binary compatibility between Commons Collections 2.1.1 and 3.1 due to issues with IteratorUtils.
