> The Iterator pattern in Java is equivalent to IEnumerable in .NET.  Classes that were directly ported in Java using the Iterator pattern, cannot be used with Linq or foreach blocks in .NET.
> {{Next()}} would be equivalent to .NET's {{MoveNext()}}, and in the below case, {{Term()}} would be as .NET's {{Current}} property.  In cases as below, it will require {{TermEnum}} to become an abstract class with {{Term}} and {{DocFreq}} properties, which would be returned from another class or method that implemented {{IEnumerable<TermEnum>}}.
> {noformat} 
> 	public abstract class TermEnum : IDisposable
> 	{
> 		public abstract bool Next();
> 		public abstract Term Term();
> 		public abstract int DocFreq();
> 		public abstract void  Close();
> 	        public abstract void Dispose();
> 	}
> {noformat} 
> would instead look something like:
> {noformat} 
> 	public class TermFreq
> 	{
> 		public abstract Term { get; }
> 		public abstract int { get; }
> 	}
>         public abstract class TermEnum : IEnumerable<TermFreq>, IDisposable
>         {
>                 // ...
>         }
> {noformat}
> Keep in mind that it is important that if the class being converted implements {{IDisposable}}, the class that is enumerating the terms (in this case {{TermEnum}}) should inherit from both {{IEnumerable<T>}} *and* {{IDisposable}}.  This won't be any change to the user, as the compiler automatically calls {{IDisposable}} when used in a {{foreach}} loop.
