# Class FilterListIterator<E>

java.lang.Object
org.apache.commons.collections4.iterators.FilterListIterator<E>

Type Parameters:
  `E` - the type of elements returned by this iterator.

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `Iterator<E>`, `ListIterator<E>`

public class FilterListIterator<E> extends Object implements ListIterator<E>
Decorates another `ListIterator` using a predicate to filter elements.

This iterator decorates the underlying iterator, only allowing through those elements that match the specified `Predicate`.

Since:
  2.0

- ## Method Details

  - ### add

    public void add(E o)
    Not supported.
    Specified by:
      `add` in interface `ListIterator<E>`
    Parameters:
      `o` - the element to insert

  - ### getListIterator

    public ListIterator<? extends E> getListIterator()

    Gets the predicate this iterator is using.
    Returns:
      the predicate.

  - ### hasNext

    public boolean hasNext()
    Specified by:
      `hasNext` in interface `Iterator<E>`
    Specified by:
      `hasNext` in interface `ListIterator<E>`

  - ### hasPrevious

    public boolean hasPrevious()
    Specified by:
      `hasPrevious` in interface `ListIterator<E>`

  - ### next
