# Class AbstractMapIteratorDecorator<K,V>

java.lang.Object
org.apache.commons.collections4.iterators.AbstractMapIteratorDecorator<K,V>

Type Parameters:
  `K` - the type of keys
  `V` - the type of mapped values

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `Iterator<K>`, `MapIterator<K,V>`

public class AbstractMapIteratorDecorator<K,V> extends Object implements MapIterator<K,V>
Provides basic behavior for decorating a map iterator with extra functionality.

All methods are forwarded to the decorated map iterator.

Since:
  3.0

- ## Method Summary

  Modifier and Type
  Method
  Description
  `K`
  `getKey()`
  Gets the current key, which is the key returned by the last call to `next()`.
  `protected MapIterator<K,V>`
  `getMapIterator()`
  Gets the iterator being decorated.
  `V`
  `getValue()`
  Gets the current value, which is the value associated with the last key returned by `next()`.
  `boolean`
  `hasNext()`
  Checks to see if there are more entries still to be iterated.
  `K`
  `next()`
  Gets the next key from the `Map`.
  `void`
  `remove()`
  Removes the last returned key from the underlying `Map` (optional operation).
  `V`
  `setValue(V value)`
  Sets the value associated with the current key (optional operation).

  - ### AbstractMapIteratorDecorator

    public AbstractMapIteratorDecorator(MapIterator<K,V> iterator)
    Constructor that decorates the specified iterator.
    Parameters:
      `iterator` - the iterator to decorate, must not be null
    Throws:
      `NullPointerException` - if the iterator is null

- ## Method Details

  - ### getKey

    public K getKey()
    Gets the current key, which is the key returned by the last call to `next()`.
    Specified by:
      `getKey` in interface `MapIterator<K,V>`
    Returns:
      the current key

  - ### getMapIterator

    protected MapIterator<K,V> getMapIterator()
    Gets the iterator being decorated.
    Returns:
      the decorated iterator

  - ### getValue

    public V getValue()
    Gets the current value, which is the value associated with the last key returned by `next()`.
    Specified by:
      `getValue` in interface `MapIterator<K,V>`
    Returns:
      the current value

  - ### hasNext

    public boolean hasNext()
    Checks to see if there are more entries still to be iterated.
    Specified by:
      `hasNext` in interface `Iterator<K>`
    Specified by:
      `hasNext` in interface `MapIterator<K,V>`
    Returns:
      `true` if the iterator has more elements

  - ### next

    public K next()
    Gets the next key from the `Map`.
    Specified by:
      `next` in interface `Iterator<K>`
    Specified by:
      `next` in interface `MapIterator<K,V>`
    Returns:
      the next key in the iteration

  - ### remove

    public void remove()
    Removes the last returned key from the underlying `Map` (optional operation).

    This method can be called once per call to `next()`.

    Specified by:
      `remove` in interface `Iterator<K>`
    Specified by:
      `remove` in interface `MapIterator<K,V>`

  - ### setValue

    public V setValue(V value)
    Sets the value associated with the current key (optional operation).
    Specified by:
      `setValue` in interface `MapIterator<K,V>`
    Parameters:
      `value` - the new value
    Returns:
      the previous value
