# BShapeIterator

Derived from: (none)

Declared in: be/interface/Shape.h

Library: libbe.so

Allocation: Constructor only

###### Summary

Applications can create classes derived from BShapeIterator to iterate over the components of a BShape object. There are four virtual functions that the application must implement to process the four graphics commands described in the BShape documentation: `MoveTo()`, `LineTo()`, `BezierTo()`, and `Close()`.

These functions can be implemented to do anything they like with the commands (rendering them to the screen comes to mind as one possibility).

## Constructor and Destructor

### BShapeIterator()

`BShapeIterator()`

Constructor.

### ~BShapeIterator()

virtual `~BShapeIterator()`

Destructor.

## Member Functions

### Iterate()

status_t `Iterate(`BShape *shape`)`

`Iterate()` iterates over each command that comprises the shape, in order, calling the `Iterate...()` function that corresponds to each command.

RETURN CODES

`B_OK`. No error.

- Other errors. None are defined at this time, but you should always check for errors returned by this function.

### IterateBezierTo() , IterateClose() , IterateLineTo() , IterateMoveTo()

virtual status_t `IterateBezierTo(`int32 bezierCount, BPoint * bezierPoints`)`
virtual status_t `IterateClose(`void`)`
virtual status_t `IterateLineTo(`int32 lineCount, BPoint * linePoints`)`
virtual status_t `IterateMoveTo(`BPoint * point`)`

These functions are called by `Iterate()` to process the shape commands. Your BShapeIterator-derived class must implement these four functions.
