NAME
RDF::Redland::Iterator - Redland RDF Iterator Class
SYNOPSIS
use RDF::Redland;
...
my $iterator=$model->targets_iterator($source_node, $arc_node);
while($iterator && !$iterator->end) {
my $node=$iterator->current;
...
$iterator->next;
}
DESCRIPTION
This class is used to return lists of RDF::Redland::Node objects from a method that returns an RDF::Redland::Iterator - commonly one of the
get_sources_iterator, get_targets_iterator or get_arcs_iterator methods of the RDF::Redland::Model class.
This allows efficient retrieval of long lists of RDF::Redland::Node objects but isn't really very Perl-friendly. The get_sources,
get_targets or get_arcs methods of RDF::Redland::Model class return Perl lists and the get_source, get_target and get_arc methods return
single arbitrary results.
CONSTRUCTORS
No public constructors - are created and returned from various methods of classes including RDF::Redland::Model
METHODS

next
Moves the iterator to the next item, returns undef if the iteration is finished.
context
Returns the context RDF::Redland::Node object from the iteration or undef if the iteration is finished.
