- htsjdk.variant.variantcontext.filter.FilteringVariantContextIterator

All Implemented Interfaces:

CloseableIterator<VariantContext>, Closeable, AutoCloseable, Iterable<VariantContext>, Iterator<VariantContext>

Direct Known Subclasses:

FilteringIterator
```
public class FilteringVariantContextIterator
extends Object
implements CloseableIterator<VariantContext>, Iterable<VariantContext>
```
A filtering iterator for VariantContexts that takes a base iterator and a VariantContextFilter. The iterator returns all the variantcontexts for which the filter's function "test" returns true (and only those)

public FilteringVariantContextIterator(Iterator<VariantContext> iterator,
                                       VariantContextFilter filter)
```
    Constructor of an iterator based on the provided iterator and predicate. The resulting records will be all those VariantContexts from iterator for which filter.test( . ) is true
    
    Parameters:
    
    iterator - the backing iterator
    
    filter - the filter

  - close
```
public void close()
```
    Description copied from interface: CloseableIterator
    
    Should be implemented to close/release any underlying resources.
    
    Specified by:
    
    close in interface AutoCloseable
    
    Specified by:
    
    close in interface Closeable
    
    Specified by:
    
    close in interface CloseableIterator<VariantContext>
  - hasNext
```
public boolean hasNext()
```
    Returns true if the iteration has more elements.
    
    Specified by:
    
    hasNext in interface Iterator<VariantContext>
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the iteration has more elements. Otherwise returns false.
  - next
```
public VariantContext next()
                    throws NoSuchElementException
```
    Returns the next element in the iteration.
    
    Specified by:
    
    next in interface Iterator<VariantContext>
    
    Returns:
    
    the next element in the iteration
    
    Throws:
    
    NoSuchElementException - if there are no more elements to return
  - remove
```
public void remove()
```
    Required method for Iterator API.
    
    Specified by:
    
    remove in interface Iterator<VariantContext>
    
    Throws:
    
    UnsupportedOperationException - since it is unsupported here.
  - iterator
```
public Iterator<VariantContext> iterator()
```
    function to satisfy the Iterable interface
    
    Specified by:
    
    iterator in interface Iterable<VariantContext>
    
    Returns:
    
    itself since the class inherits from Iterator
