Hi,

any reason not to just have Enumeration extend Iterable and default-implement iterator()?

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~redestad/scratch/enumerable.00/

I guess there are compatibility risks I haven't thought through completely, but I think concrete classes that already implement both Enumeration and Iterable should continue to work as expected (since the concrete class' implementation of iterator always takes precedence), no?

Hi all,

Please review this small API enhancement to add a default method "asIterator()" to Enumeration that converts it into an Iterator. Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~smarks/reviews/8072726/webrev.0/ Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8072726 Thanks, s'marks
