Interface SupersedingEventList

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidList, OsidList
public interface SupersedingEventList extends OsidList

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

while (sel.hasNext()) {
     SupersedingEvent event = sel.getNextSupersedingEvent();
}
or 
while (sel.hasNext()) {
     SupersedingEvent[] events = sel.getNextSupersedingEvents(sel.available());
}
