__________________________________________________________________________

 Open ROOT TFile by the name provided;
 This TFile is to be deleted by the TFileIter alone

 return the pointer to the current TKey

 return the name of the current TKey

 read the object from TFile defined by the current TKey

 ATTENTION:  memory leak danger !!!
 ---------
 This method does create a new object and it is the end-user
 code responsibility to take care about the object returned
 to avoid memeory leak.

 Returns the uncompressed length of the current object

 The total number of the TKey keys in this current TFile
 Usually this means the total number of different objects
 thos can be read separately with one "read" operation

 return the pointer to the object defined by next TKey
 This method is not recommended. It was done for the sake
 of the compatibility with TListIter

 Reset the status of the iterator

 Find the key by the name provided

 Returns the pointer to the nSkip object from the current one
 nSkip = 0; the state of the iterator is not changed

 nSkip > 0; iterator skips nSkip objects in the container.
            the direction of the iteration is
            sign(nSkip)*kIterForward

 reads, creates and returns the object by TKey name that matches
 the "name" ."runNumber" ." eventNumber" schema
 Attention: This method does create a new TObject and it is the user
 code responsibility to take care (delete) this object to avoid
 memory leak.

 Create a special TKey name with obj provided and write it out.
