Not sure how to read this one: > What this doesn't say (and what may be implicit in the use of the word "consistent") is that iteration won't result in an error such as IndexOutOfBoundsException or NoSuchElementException [..] The third bullet in particular explicitly doesn't make any guarantees about what elements are seen by the iteration if modifications occur during iteration. Also: > Weakly consistent iteration provides guarantees against repeated elements and against a variety of errors or infinite loops that can occur. The "weakness" is that they provide few guarantees about exactly which elements are observed during iteration. In the end, I can only infer that we don't know what elements we get back. It seems not to be conclusive about `hasNext/next` guarantees / safety. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
