Interface EffortBatchFormList

All Superinterfaces:

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

public interface EffortBatchFormList
extends OsidList

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

       
       
       while (ebfl.hasNext()) {
            EffortBatchForm form = ebfl.getNextEffortBatchForm();
       }
       
                   
       
  

or

       
       
       while (ebfl.hasNext()) {
            EffortBatchForm[] forms = ebfl.getNextEffortBatchForms(ebfl.available());
       }
