    public class SortedGroupIterator
    extends SortedIterator
    implements GroupIterator
    A SortedGroupIterator is a modified SortedIterator. It sorts a sequence of groups, and is itself a GroupIterator. The modifications retain extra information about the items being sorted. The items are each the leading item of a group, and as well as the item itself, the iterator preserves information about the group: specifically, an iterator over the items in the group, and the value of the grouping key (if any).
