public final class NullSaveIterator<Payload>
extends Object
implements Iterator<Payload>

A NullSaveIterator is an Iterator that can be wrapped around a given Iterator and always behaves correctly, even if the given Iterator is null (by behaving like an EmptyIterator).

Calling any of the methods declared by Iterator will be relayed to the given Iterator, if present.

For convenience, it is possible to constuct a NullSaveIterator from an Iterable even if the given Iterable is null.
