Re: RichSequenceIterator.hasNext from empty file return true!!!

Hi Khali,

In my hands I found "java.io.FileNotFoundException: emptyFile.txt (The  
system cannot find the file specified)", which is not exactly the same  
thing as an empty file. Anyway, I think you are right and  
RichStreamReader should switch the moreSequenceAvailable flag before  
throwing the exception. In your case just get out of the loop and you  
should be safe. Thanks for reporting.
