NAME

       DBM::Deep::Iterator::BucketList - mediate between DBM::Deep::Iterator and
       DBM::Deep::Engine::Sector::BucketList

PURPOSE

       This is an internal-use-only object for DBM::Deep. It acts as the mediator between the
       DBM::Deep::Iterator object and a DBM::Deep::Engine::Sector::BucketList sector.

OVERVIEW

       This object, despite the implied class hierarchy, does NOT inherit from
       DBM::Deep::Iterator. Instead, it delegates to it, essentially acting as a facade over it.
       "get_next_key" in DBM::Deep::Iterator will instantiate one of these objects as needed to
       handle an BucketList sector.

METHODS

   new(\%params)
       The constructor takes a hashref of params and blesses it into the invoking class. The
       hashref is assumed to have the following elements:

       •   iterator (of type DBM::Deep::Iterator

       •   sector (of type DBM::Deep::Engine::Sector::BucketList

   at_end()
       This takes no arguments.

       This returns true/false indicating whether this sector has any more elements that can be
       iterated over.

   get_next_iterator()
       This takes no arguments.

       This returns the next key pointed to by this bucketlist. This value is suitable for
       returning by FIRSTKEY or NEXTKEY().

       If the bucketlist is exhausted, it returns nothing.
