Interface AvailabilityBatchFormList

All Superinterfaces:

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

public interface AvailabilityBatchFormList
extends OsidList

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

       
       
       while (abfl.hasNext()) {
            AvailabilityBatchForm form = abfl.getNextAvailabilityBatchForm();
       }
       
                   
       
  

or

       
       
       while (abfl.hasNext()) {
            AvailabilityBatchForm[] forms = abfl.getNextAvailabilityBatchForms(abfl.available());
       }
