    Objects of this class implement the iterator protocol.

        The underlying library only provides a one-time iterator (it
        cannot reset the iterator to the start). Thus iterating over
        the function will "exhaust" the list of tags, and a subsequent
        iteration attempt will raise a
        :exc:`NotInitializedError`. Also note, that any function that
        uses iteration (nearly all) will also exhaust the tags. So
        both::

           for name in filenames: print name

        as well as::

           number_of_names = len(names)

        and even a simple::

           #str() iterates over all tags to construct a space separated list
           print(str(filenames))

        will "exhaust" the Filenames. However, you can use
        :meth:`Message.get_filenames` repeatedly to get fresh
        Filenames objects to perform various actions on filenames.
