Why aren't Enumerations Iterable?

Question

In Java 5 and above you have the foreach loop, which works magically on anything that implements Iterable:

for (Object o : list) {
  doStuff(o);         


        

Answer 1

AFAIK Enumeration is kinda "deprecated":

Iterator takes the place of Enumeration in the Java collections framework

I hope they'll change the Servlet API with JSR 315 to use Iterator instead of Enumeration.
