public interface ClosableIterator

extends java.util.Iterator

An iterator which should be closed after use

Some iterators take up resources which should be free'd as soon as possible, i.e. without waiting for the garbage collector to call the the finalizer.

Implementors of this interface are expected to close automatically if if the iterator iterates to completion, i.e. more() will return false.
