Field Detail

EMPTY

static final BytesRefIterator EMPTY

Singleton BytesRefIterator that iterates over 0 BytesRefs.

Method Detail

next

BytesRef next()
       throws IOException

Increments the iteration to the next BytesRef in the iterator. Returns the resulting BytesRef or null if the end of the iterator is reached. The returned BytesRef may be re-used across calls to next. After this method returns null, do not call it again: the results are undefined.

Returns:

the next BytesRef in the iterator or null if the end of the iterator is reached.

Throws:

IOException - If there is a low-level I/O error.
