virtual void startTermIteration ()=0
 start term iteration.

virtual bool hasMore ()=0
 returns true iff there's at least one term for iteration.

virtual TokenTermnextTerm ()=0
 returns a pointer to next term (static memory, do not delete the returned instance). caller should check hasMore() before calling it.
