Interface Enumeration<E>

All Known Implementing Classes:
NamespaceSupport.Prefixes, StringTokenizer
public interface Enumeration<E>
A legacy iteration interface.

New code should use Iterator instead. Iterator replaces the enumeration interface and adds a way to remove elements from a collection.

If you have an Enumeration and want a Collection, you can use Collections.list(java.util.Enumeration<T>) to get a List.

If you need an Enumeration for a legacy API and have a Collection, you can use Collections.enumeration(java.util.Collection<T>).
