EmptyIterable (Microsphere :: Java :: Core 0.1.2 API)

java.lang.Object
- io.microsphere.collection.IterableAdapter<E>
- - io.microsphere.collection.EmptyIterable<E>

Type Parameters:

E - the type of elements returned by the iterator

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Iterable<E>
```
public class EmptyIterable<E>
extends IterableAdapter<E>
```
An empty Iterable implementation that always returns an empty iterator.
This class is a singleton-friendly extension of IterableAdapter, primarily useful for representing an empty collection view. It guarantees that the method IterableAdapter.iterator() will return an instance of EmptyIterator.INSTANCE, ensuring consistent behavior across uses.

Example Usage
```
 Iterable<String> emptyIterable = EmptyIterable.INSTANCE;
 for (String item : emptyIterable) {
     // This loop will not execute as the iterable is empty.
 }
 
```
