Sling - Loop through properties of a resource

Question

I'm used to using nodes in sling and accustomed to looping through nodes with something like:

NodeIterator headerNode = currentNode.getNodes();
//loop through and do something

But how would I do this if I'm trying to loop through all the properties of a resource. I'm really lost here. So currently I'm simply grabbing a single property of a resource. But what if I want to grab all the properties of said resource how would I do that?

Resource getResource = resourceResolver.getResource("/content/AboutPage/jcr:content/list");
ValueMap property = getResource.adaptTo(ValueMap.class);
String title = property.get("jcr:lastEdited", String.class);

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Can I get an explanation on the down vote please? Thanks! – Delmon Young Jul 30 '13 at 01:21 — Delmon Young, Jul 30 '13 at 01:21

As ValueMap extends java.util.Map you can use the entrySet() method:

Resource getResource = resourceResolver.getResource("/content/AboutPage/jcr:content/list");
ValueMap property = getResource.adaptTo(ValueMap.class);
for(Entry<String, Object> e : property.entrySet()) {
    String key = e.getKey();
    Object value = e.getValue();
    //use the key and value here
}

Thanks for replying @Aleksander I'm kind of confused though I haven't used key value pairs in java much. If I'm just looping through properties would I need to use a key value pair. If so what is suppose to be the key? Thanks for the help. – Delmon Young May 20 '13 at 18:49
