public interface DispatchList extends OsidList
Like all OsidLists, DispatchList provides
a means for accessing Dispatch elements sequentially either
one at a time or many at a time. Examples:
while (dl.hasNext()) {
Dispatch dispatch = dl.getNextDispatch();
}
or
while (dl.hasNext()) {
Dispatch[] dispatches = dl.getNextDispatches(dl.available());
}
