MultipleIterator implementation for HHVM
========================================

[](#multipleiterator-implementation-for-hhvm)

This package offers a pure PHP-implementation of the MultipleIterator class siince [HHVM does not implement MultipleIterator](https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/issues/5350).

It is safe to `composer require lorenzo/multiple-iterator` in any project even if not using HHVM, as the class will only be included for HHVM.

License
=======

[](#license)

Unfortunately, unknown. The code was copied from [The original author site](http://blog.somabo.de/2008/01/multipleiterator-for-php.html). Since, the code made its way to the PHP source code, I'd assume this is under the [PHP License](http://php.net/license/3_01.txt)
