RFR(s): 8072726: add adapter to convert Enumeration to Iterator (original) (raw)

Hi Stuart,

That's an RFE I have often wished for :-)

I've been wondering whether a static method in the class java.util.Collections would be better, since there already are some conversion methods there - like:

public static Enumeration emptyEnumeration(); public static Enumeration enumeration(final Collection c); public static ArrayList list(Enumeration e);

but I see that Brian already commented in the bug that he preferred the default method on Iterator...

I like the examples in the API documentation of the new method. Looks good to me!

best regards,

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
