Question

public class C1 implements Iterable {
private LinkedList list;
public static class NC1 {
…
}
…
x public Iterator iterator() {
return list.iterator();
}
}

but eclipse whines (at the x-ed line):

- The return type is incompatible with Iterable<NC1>.iterator()
- implements java.lang.Iterable<NC1>.iterator

I don’t understand where the mistake is. Can someone help?

Answer 1

You need to change NC1 to C1.NC1. The following compiles:

import java.util.*;

public class C1 implements Iterable<C1.NC1> {
    private LinkedList<NC1> list;
    public static class NC1 {
    }

    public Iterator<C1.NC1> iterator() {
        return list.iterator();
    }
}

Alternatively, you could import static yourpackage.C1.NC1.
