026: * This class represents adaptions of Java Collections Framework
027: * iterators to primitive iterators over char values.
028: *
029: * <p>
030: * Adapters from JCF collections to primitive collections will
031: * fail if the JCF collection contains <tt>null</tt> values or
032: * values of the wrong class. However, adapters are not fast
033: * failing in the case that the underlying collection should
034: * contain illegal values. To implement fast failure would require
035: * every operation to check every element of the underlying
036: * collection before doing anything. Instead validation methods
037: * are provided. They can be called using the assertion facility
038: * in the client code:
039: * <pre>
040: * CollectionToCharCollectionAdapter s;
041: * ...
042: * <b>assert</b> s.validate();
043: * </pre>
044: * or by letting the adapter throw an exception on illegal values:
045: * <pre>
046: * CollectionToCharCollectionAdapter s;
047: * ...
048: * s.evalidate(); // Throws an exception on illegal values
049: * </pre>
050: * Either way, validation must be invoked directly by the client
051: * code.
