NAME

Iterator::Flex::Stack - An iterator which concatenates a set of iterators

VERSION

version 0.18

METHODS

new

$iterator = Iterator::Flex::Stack->new( $iterable1, $iterable2, ..., ?\%pars );

Returns an iterator which manages a stack of iterators. The iterator supports the pop, push, shift, unshift methods, which have same API as the Perl builtin subroutines.

It returns the next value from the iterator at the top of the stack. Iterators are popped when they are exhausted.

The iterables are converted into iterators via "to_iterator" in Iterator::Flex::Factory if required.

The optional %pars hash may contain standard signal parameters.

The iterator supports the following capabilities:

current
next

Because the nature of the iterators on the stack may vary, the reset, rewind and freeze methods may throw at runtime if an iterator on the stack does not support the required facilities.
