/**
 * @brief   Cached iteration over another Iterator
 * @author  Marcus Boerger
 * @version 1.1
 *
 * This iterator wrapper does a one ahead iteration. This way it knows whether
 * the inner iterator has one more element.
 *
 * @note If you want to convert the elements into strings and the inner 
 *       Iterator is an internal Iterator then you need to provide the 
 *       flag CIT_CALL_TOSTRING to do the conversion when the actual element
 *       is being fetched. Otherwise the conversion would happen with the
 *       already changed iterator. If you do not need this then it you should
 *       omit this flag because it costs unneccessary work and time.
