DifferenceCursor

public DifferenceCursor(Cursor<S> left,
                Cursor<S> right,
                java.util.Comparator<S> order)

order - describes sort ordering of wrapped cursors, which must be a total ordering

Method Detail

close

public void close()
           throws FetchException

Description copied from interface: Cursor

Call close to release any resources being held by this cursor. Further operations on this cursor will behave as if there are no results.

Throws:

FetchException

hasNext

public boolean hasNext()
                throws FetchException

Description copied from interface: Cursor

Returns true if this cursor has more elements. In other words, returns true if next would return an element rather than throwing an exception.

Throws:

FetchException - if storage layer throws an exception

next

public S next()
       throws FetchException

Description copied from interface: Cursor

Returns the next element from this cursor. This method may be called repeatedly to iterate through the results.

Throws:

FetchException - if storage layer throws an exception
