SegmentIterator (Pravega API)

Type Parameters:

T - The type of the events written to this segment.

All Superinterfaces:

java.lang.AutoCloseable, java.util.Iterator<T>
```
@Beta
public interface SegmentIterator<T>
extends java.util.Iterator<T>, java.lang.AutoCloseable
```
Please note this is an experimental API. Allows for reading data from a segment. Returns an item from Iterator.next() for each event in the segment at the time of its creation. Once all the events that were in the segment at the time of the creation of the SegmentIterator have been returned Iterator.hasNext() will return false. While buffering is used to avoid it, it is possible for Iterator.next() to block on fetching the data. At any time getOffset() can be called to get the byte offset in the segment the iterator is currently pointing to.
