ParsePosition (Java Platform SE 6)

This documentation differs from the official API. Jadeite adds extra features to the API including: variable font sizes, constructions examples, placeholders for classes and methods, and auto-generated “See Also” links. Additionally it is missing some items found in standard Javadoc documentation, including: generics type information, “Deprecated” tags and comments, “See Also” links, along with other minor differences. Please send any questions or feedback to bam@cs.cmu.edu.

Based on 186 examples

public class ParsePosition
extends Object

ParsePosition is a simple class used by Format and its subclasses to keep track of the current position during parsing. The parseObject method in the various Format classes requires a ParsePosition object as an argument.

By design, as you parse through a string with different formats, you can use the same ParsePosition, since the index parameter records the current position.

Constructor Summary
`ParsePosition(int index)` Create a new ParsePosition with the given initial index.

Method Summary
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)` Overrides equals
`int`	`getErrorIndex()` Retrieve the index at which an error occurred, or -1 if the error index has not been set.
`int`	`getIndex()` Retrieve the current parse position.
`int`	`hashCode()` Returns a hash code for this ParsePosition.
`void`	`setErrorIndex(int ei)` Set the index at which a parse error occurred.
`void`	`setIndex(int index)` Set the current parse position.
`String`	`toString()` Return a string representation of this ParsePosition.

Constructor Detail

ParsePosition

public ParsePosition(int index)

Create a new ParsePosition with the given initial index.

Parameters:: index

Method Detail

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Overrides equals

Overrides:: equals in class Object
Parameters:: obj

getErrorIndex

public int getErrorIndex()

Retrieve the index at which an error occurred, or -1 if the error index has not been set.

getIndex

public int getIndex()

Retrieve the current parse position. On input to a parse method, this is the index of the character at which parsing will begin; on output, it is the index of the character following the last character parsed.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns a hash code for this ParsePosition.

Overrides:: hashCode in class Object
Returns:: a hash code value for this object

setErrorIndex

public void setErrorIndex(int ei)

Set the index at which a parse error occurred. Formatters should set this before returning an error code from their parseObject method. The default value is -1 if this is not set.

Parameters:: ei

setIndex

public void setIndex(int index)

Set the current parse position.

Parameters:: index

toString

public String toString()

Return a string representation of this ParsePosition.

Overrides:: toString in class Object
Returns:: a string representation of this object
