#53 Interval#toIterable(Period p)

[Anonymous]

In many projects I find myself implementing my own IterableInterval class which implements Iterable<datetime>. Just thought it may be a welcome addition.
Thanks for a great library! I'm an evangelist. Eric Winter, Rochester, MN, USA</datetime>

public class IterableInverval extends AbstractInterval implements Iterable<datetime> {
private final Interval interval;
private final Period period; </datetime>

public IterableInverval(Interval interval, Period period){
    this.interval = interval;
    this.period = (period != null ? period : Period.days(1));
}

public IterableInverval(DateTime start, DateTime end, Period spread){         
    this(new Interval(start, end), spread);
}

public Iterator<DateTime> iterator() {
    return new Iterator<DateTime>(){            
        private DateTime next = interval.getStart();            
        public boolean hasNext() {
            return interval.getEnd()==null || interval.getEnd().isAfter(next);
        }
        public DateTime next() {
            if(!hasNext()) throw new NoSuchElementException("There are no more dates in the range.");

            DateTime oldNext = next;
            next = next.plus(period);                    
            return oldNext;
        }
        public void remove() {
            throw new UnsupportedOperationException();
        }
    };
}

public Period getPeriod(){
    return this.period;
}

@Override
public Interval toInterval(){
    return interval;
}

public Chronology getChronology() {
    return this.interval.getChronology();
}

public long getEndMillis() {
    return this.interval.getEndMillis();
}

public long getStartMillis() {
    return this.interval.getStartMillis();
}

}

An interesting idea, worth pursuing,
