public interface RangeIterator

Interface for a Parameter or ParameterSet that can have multiple values at the same time. This includes methods to loop over all values while preserving the expected behaviour of the methods defined in Parameter respectively ParameterSet.

Method Summary

int	getNumberOfValues() Returns the number of values in the collection.
boolean	isRanged() Returns true if this range iterator is ranging over a set of values.
boolean	next() Switches to the next value in the collection of values in the specified range.
void	resetToFirst() Resets the current value in the collection to the first value.
String	valuesToString() Returns a String-representation of the set of values.

Method Detail

next

boolean next()
             throws ParameterException

Returns:

if the next element exists

Throws:

ParameterException - if the next value could not be set

resetToFirst

void resetToFirst()

Resets the current value in the collection to the first value.

getNumberOfValues

int getNumberOfValues()

Returns the number of values in the collection.

Returns:

the number of values

valuesToString

String valuesToString()

Returns a String-representation of the set of values.

Returns:

the representation

isRanged

boolean isRanged()

Returns true if this range iterator is ranging over a set of values.

Returns:

if ranging
