Technical Session #1
5:00am - 5:45am PDT
Enumerators, IEnumerable™ and the Spring Framework
The IEnumerable interface is a powerful window into the collections framework on Spring for Delphi. It can be used to easily and quickly retrieve anything from a list. In this presentation, we start by looking at the basics of enumerators and then move on to see the power and capabilities of the IEnumerable interface. After this presentation, you won't want to access your lists any other way.
