RWHashTableIterator(3C++)

RWHashTableIterator - Rogue Wave library class

As shipped in IRIX 6.5.7. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.

Name
     RWHashTableIterator - Rogue Wave library class

Synopsis
              #include <rw/hashtab.h>



              RWHashTable h;
          RWHashTableIterator it(h);




Description
     Iterator for class RWHashTable, which allows sequential access to all the
     elements of RWHashTable.  Note that because an RWHashTable is unordered,
     elements are not accessed in any particular order. As with all Rogue Wave
     iterators, the "current item" is undefined immediately after construction
     -- you must define it by using operator() or some other (valid)
     operation.  Once the iterator has advanced beyond the end of the
     collection it is no longer valid -- continuing to use it will bring
     undefined results.

Persistence
     None

Public Constructor
              RWHashTableIterator(RWHashTable&);


     Construct an iterator for an RWHashTable.  After construction, the
     position of the iterator is undefined.

Public Member Operator
              virtual RWCollectable*
          operator()();


     Redefined from class RWIterator.  Advances the iterator to the next item
     and returns it. Returns nil when the end of the collection is reached.

Public Member Functions
              virtual RWCollectable*
          findNext(const RWCollectable* target);


     Redefined from class RWIterator.  Moves iterator to the next item which
     isEqual to the item pointed to by target and returns it.
              virtual RWCollectable*
          key() const;


     Redefined from class RWIterator.  Returns the item at the current
     iterator position.

              RWCollectable*
          remove();


     Remove the item at the current iterator position from the collection.

              RWCollectable*
          removeNext(const RWCollectable*);


     Moves the iterator to the next item which isEqual to the item pointed to
     by target, removes it from the collection and returns it.  If no item is
     found, returns nil and the position of the iterator will be undefined.

              virtual void
          reset();


     Redefined from class RWIterator.  Resets the iterator to its starting
     state.
