Interface Producer<T>

Type Parameters:

T - The type of the products

public interface Producer<T>

An object that produces some Object each time the produce() method is invoked. This behavior is similar to the Iterator, but is represented by one single produce() method as opposed to Iterator's two methods Iterator.hasNext() and Iterator.next(). This simplifies the implementation of certain complex iterations.
