48 * @discussion
49 * OSCollectionIterator defines a consistent mechanism to iterate
50 * through the objects of an OSCollection.
51 * It expands on the basic interface of
52 * @link //apple_ref/cpp/class/OSIterator OSIterator@/link
53 * to allow association of an iterator with a specific collection.
54 *
55 * To use an OSCollectionIterator, you create it with the collection
56 * to be iterated, then call
57 * @link //apple_ref/cpp/class/OSIterator OSIterator@/link
58 * as long as it returns an object:
59 *
60 * @textblock
61 * <pre>
62 *     OSCollectionIterator * iterator =
63 *         OSCollectionIterator::withCollection(myCollection);
64 *     OSObject * object;
65 *     while (object = iterator->getNextObject()) {
66 *         // do something with object
67 *     }
68 *     // optional
69 *     if (!iterator->isValid()) {
70 *         // report that collection changed during iteration
71 *     }
72 *     iterator->release();
73 * </pre>
74 * @/textblock
75 *
76 * Note that when iterating associative collections,
77 * the objects returned by <code>getNextObject</code> are keys;
78 * if you want to work with the associated values,
79 * simply look them up in the collection with the keys.
80 *
81 * <b>Use Restrictions</b>
82 *
83 * With very few exceptions in the I/O Kit, all Libkern-based C++
84 * classes, functions, and macros are <b>unsafe</b>
85 * to use in a primary interrupt context.
86 * Consult the I/O Kit documentation related to primary interrupts
87 * for more information.
88 *
89 * OSCollectionIterator provides no concurrency protection.
