java.text.StringCharacterIterator
- All Implemented Interfaces:
Cloneable
,CharacterIterator
public final class StringCharacterIterator extends Object implements CharacterIterator
StringCharacterIterator
implements the
CharacterIterator
protocol for a String
.
The StringCharacterIterator
class iterates over the
entire String
.- Since:

Method Details

setText
Reset this iterator to point to a new string. This package-visible method is used by other java.text classes that want to avoid allocating new StringCharacterIterator objects every time their setText method is called.- Parameters:
text
- The String to be iterated over- Since:
- 1.2
-
first
public char first()Implements CharacterIterator.first() for String.- Specified by:
first
in interfaceCharacterIterator
- Returns:
- the first character in the text, or DONE if the text is empty
- See Also:

-
last
public char last()Implements CharacterIterator.last() for String.- Specified by:
last
in interfaceCharacterIterator
- Returns:
- the last character in the text, or DONE if the text is empty
- See Also:
CharacterIterator.last()
-
setIndex
public char setIndex(int p)Implements CharacterIterator.setIndex() for String.- Specified by:
setIndex
in interfaceCharacterIterator
- Parameters:
p
- the position within the text. Valid values range from getBeginIndex() to getEndIndex(). An IllegalArgumentException is thrown if an invalid value is supplied.- Returns:
- the character at the specified position or DONE if the specified position is equal to getEndIndex()
- See Also:
CharacterIterator.setIndex(int)
-
current
public char current()Implements CharacterIterator.current() for String.- Specified by:
current
in interfaceCharacterIterator
- Returns:
- the character at the current position or DONE if the current position is off the end of the text.
- See Also:
CharacterIterator.current()
-
next
public char next()Implements CharacterIterator.next() for String.- Specified by:
next
in interfaceCharacterIterator
- Returns:
- the character at the new position or DONE if the new position is off the end of the text range.
- See Also:
CharacterIterator.next()
-
previous
public char previous()Implements CharacterIterator.previous() for String.- Specified by:
previous
in interfaceCharacterIterator
- Returns:
- the character at the new position or DONE if the current position is equal to getBeginIndex().
- See Also:
CharacterIterator.previous()
-
getBeginIndex
public int getBeginIndex()Implements CharacterIterator.getBeginIndex() for String.- Specified by:
getBeginIndex
in interfaceCharacterIterator

-
getEndIndex
public int getEndIndex()Implements CharacterIterator.getEndIndex() for String.- Specified by:
getEndIndex
in interfaceCharacterIterator
