	public Enumeration<String> getParameterNames() {
	    return new Enumeration<String>() {
	        private final Iterator<String> iter =
	            myHashMap.iterator();
	        @Override
	        public boolean hasMoreElements() {
	            return iter.hasNext();
	        }
	        @Override
	        public String nextElement() {
	            return iter.next();
	        }
	    };
	}

If you do this sort of thing a lot write yourself a utility
class implementing Enumeration<T>, with a constructor that
takes an Iterator<T>.  A companion class wrapping an Iterator<T>
around an Enumeration<T> is equally easy to write, and might
also be handy.  (I'm a little surprised that Snoracle doesn't
provide such wrappers -- or maybe they do, but under names
that have escaped my notice.)
