- Stream comment:
- 'I am an abstract class that provides interruptable sequential access to
- objects. I can return successive objects from a source, or accept
- successive objects and store them sequentially on a sink. I provide
- some simple iteration over the contents of one of my instances, and
- provide for writing collections sequentially.' !
