Interface ActionBatchFormList

All Superinterfaces:

java.lang.AutoCloseable, java.io.Closeable, OsidList

public interface ActionBatchFormList
extends OsidList

Like all OsidLists, ActionBatchFormList provides a means for accessing ActionBatchForm elements sequentially either one at a time or many at a time. Examples:

       
       
       while (abfl.hasNext()) {
            ActionBatchForm form = abfl.getNextActionBatchForm();
       }
       
                   
       
  

or

       
       
       while (abfl.hasNext()) {
            ActionBatchForm[] forms = abfl.getNextActionBatchForms(abfl.available());
       }
