Method Details

next
Description copied from interface:SequenceIterator
Get the next item in the sequence. This method changes the state of the iterator.- Specified by:
next
in interfaceSequenceIterator
- Returns:
- the next item, or null if there are no more items. Once a call on next() has returned null, no further calls should be made. The preferred action for an iterator if subsequent calls on next() are made is to return null again, and all implementations within Saxon follow this rule.
