Program: How to remove an element from collection using Iterator object?


Description:

Below example shows how to remove an element from collection object using Iterator object. The remove() method removes from the underlying collection the last element returned by the iterator


Code:
package com.java2novice.iterator;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.List;

public class MyItrRemoveElement {

	public static void main(String a[]){
		
		String removeElem = "Perl";
		List<String> myList = new ArrayList<String>();
		myList.add("Java");
		myList.add("Unix");
		myList.add("Oracle");
		myList.add("C++");
		myList.add("Perl");
		System.out.println("Before remove:");
		System.out.println(myList);
		Iterator<String> itr = myList.iterator();
		while(itr.hasNext()){
			if(removeElem.equals(itr.next())){
				itr.remove();
			}
		}
		System.out.println("After remove:");
		System.out.println(myList);
	}
}

Output:
Before remove:
[Java, Unix, Oracle, C++, Perl]
After remove:
[Java, Unix, Oracle, C++]

Prevent a method from being overridden
By specifying final keyword to the method you can avoid overriding in a subcalss. Similarlly one can use final at class level to prevent creating subclasses.
