/**
* Utility class to help implement an iterator/enumerator in which the hasNext()
* method needs to calculate the next elements ahead of time.
*
* Many classes which implement an iterator face a common problem: if there
* is no easy way to calculate hasNext() other than to call getNext(), then they
* save the result for fetching in the next call to getNext(). This utility
* helps in doing just that.
*
*
Usage: The new iterator class will hold this class as a member
* variable and forward the hasNext() and next() to it. When creating an
* instance of this class, you supply it with a functor that is doing the real
* job of calculating the next element.
*

//This class supllies enumeration of integer till 100.

public Object nextElement() throws NoSuchElementException {
counter++;
if (counter>=100)
throw new NoSuchElementException();
else
return new Integer(counter);
}
});
}
//forwarding to nextSupplier and return its returned value
public boolean hasMoreElements() {
return this.nextSupplier.hasMoreElements();
}
// forwarding to nextSupplier and return its returned value
