=head1 NAME

DBM::Deep::Iterator - iterator for FIRSTKEY() and NEXTKEY()

=head1 PURPOSE

This is an internal-use-only object for L. It is the iterator
for FIRSTKEY() and NEXTKEY().

=head1 OVERVIEW

This object

=head1 METHODS

=head2 new(\%params)

The constructor takes a hashref of params. The hashref is assumed to have the
following elements:

=over 4

=item * engine (of type L

=item * base_offset (the base_offset of the invoking DBM::Deep object)

=back

=cut

sub new {
    my $class = shift;
    my ($args) = @_;

    my $self = bless {
        engine      => $args->{engine},
        base_offset => $args->{base_offset},
    }, $class;

    Scalar::Util::weaken( $self->{engine} );

    $self->reset;

    return $self;
}

=head2 reset()

This method takes no arguments.

It will reset the iterator so that it will start from the beginning again.

This method returns nothing.
