+    @anchor IteratorExample
+
+    @ref orxonox::Iterator "Iterator" allows to iterate through an @ref orxonox::ObjectListBase
+    "ObjectListBase". Objects in this list are cast to the template argument @a T of Iterator<T> using
+    @c dynamic_cast. In contrast to @ref orxonox::ObjectListIterator "ObjectListIterator<T>",
+    @ref orxonox::Iterator "Iterator<T>" can iterate through every object-list. In practice though it
+    is limited to objects of type @a T and its subclasses. Because of the @c dynamic_cast, this iterator
+    is much slower than ObjectListIterator.
 
     Usage:
+    @code
     for (Iterator<myClass> it = anyidentifier->getObjects()->begin(); it != anyidentifier->getObjects()->end(); ++it)
