Method Detail

mapIterator

public java.util.Iterator mapIterator(AxiomaticSet set)
Description copied from interface: ObjectInjectiveSetMapping
This method optimizes the case where a client wants to apply some mapping or constraint to each element of a set until a particular condition applies and then stop. Mapping's that implement this interface should generally implement their map(set) method as: for (Iterator it = mapIterator(set); it.hasNext();) { result.add(doMapping(it.next)); }

Specified by:
mapIterator in interface ObjectInjectiveSetMapping
Returns:
an iterator that allows a client to apply the mapping one element of set at a time. The iterator is immutable and should throw UnsupportedOperationException if remove() is called.

map

public abstract java.lang.Object map(java.lang.Object element)
Parameters:
element -
Returns:
the result object from the mapping on element

map

public final AxiomaticSet map(AxiomaticSet set)
Specified by:
map in interface AxiomaticSetMapping
Returns:
the new set resulting from applying the map to set
