33 PM=0ASubject: BookKeeper newbie question=0A=0AHi,=0A=0AI am experimentin=
g with BookKeeper and have a question on LedgerHandler class. =0AThe readEn=
tries(firstEntry, lastEntry) method takes the indexes of first and =0Alast =
entries. Also, the LedgerSequence object returned has method =0AhasMoreElem=
ents().=0A=0AQuestion:=0A1. How does a client knows the index of the last e=
ntry? I was expecting clients =0Ato make a call like readEntries(0, Integer=
.MAX_INT) and the hasMoreElements() to =0A=0Areturn false the moment there =
are no more entries. Am I missing something in the =0A=0Away the API is sup=
posed to be used?=0A=0A2. The LedgerSequence.hasMoreElements() returns true=
 (even if there are no more =0Aentries), and the nextEntry returns null.=0A=
=0ACan someone  please clarify the correct semantics of these APIs.=0A=0A-a=
