    public abstract class DocIdSetIterator

extends Object

This abstract class defines methods to iterate over a set of non-decreasing doc ids.

Constructor Summary
`DocIdSetIterator()`

Method Summary
`abstract int` | `doc()` Returns the current document number.
`abstract boolean` | `next()` Moves to the next docId in the set.
`abstract boolean` | `skipTo(int target)` Skips entries to the first beyond the current whose document number is greater than or equal to target.

Constructor Detail

### DocIdSetIterator

    public DocIdSetIterator()

Method Detail

### doc

    public abstract int doc()

  Returns the current document number.

  This is invalid until `next()` is called for the first time.

### next

    public abstract boolean next()
                          throws IOException

  Moves to the next docId in the set. Returns true, iff there is such a docId.

  Throws:
    `IOException`

### skipTo

    public abstract boolean skipTo(int target)
                            throws IOException

  Skips entries to the first beyond the current whose document number is greater than or equal to target.

  Returns true iff there is such an entry.

  Behaves as if written:

         boolean skipTo(int target) {
           do {
             if (!next())
               return false;
           } while (target > doc());
           return true;
         }

  Some implementations are considerably more efficient than that.

  Throws:
    `IOException`
