Interface AssetContentList

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

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

while (acl.hasNext()) {
     AssetContent content = acl.getNextAssetContent();
}
or 
while (acl.hasNext()) {
     AssetContent[] contents = acl.getNextAssetContents(acl.available());
}
