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++]

What is adapter class?
An adapter class provides the default implementation of all methods in an event listener interface. Adapter classes are very useful when you want to process only few of the events that are handled by a particular event listener interface. You can define a new class by extending one of the adapter classes and implement only those events relevant to you.
