Class TextBuffer

java.lang.Object
  com.fasterxml.jackson.core.util.TextBuffer

public final class TextBuffer
extends Object

TextBuffer is a class similar to StringBuffer, with following differences:

• TextBuffer uses segments character arrays, to avoid having to do additional array copies when array is not big enough. This means that only reallocating that is necessary is done only once: if and when caller wants to access contents in a linear array (char[], String).
• TextBuffer can also be initialized in "shared mode", in which it will just act as a wrapper to a single char array managed by another object (like parser that owns it)
• TextBuffer is not synchronized.

Method Detail

releaseBuffers

public void releaseBuffers()

Method called to indicate that the underlying buffers should now be recycled if they haven't yet been recycled. Although caller can still use this text buffer, it is not advisable to call this method if that is likely, since next time a buffer is needed, buffers need to reallocated. Note: calling this method automatically also clears contents of the buffer.

resetWithEmpty

public void resetWithEmpty()

Method called to clear out any content text buffer may have, and initializes buffer to use non-shared data.

resetWithShared

public void resetWithShared(char[] buf,
                            int start,
                            int len)

Method called to initialize the buffer with a shared copy of data; this means that buffer will just have pointers to actual data. It also means that if anything is to be appended to the buffer, it will first have to unshare it (make a local copy).

resetWithCopy

public void resetWithCopy(char[] buf,
                          int start,
                          int len)

resetWithString

public void resetWithString(String value)

size

public int size()

Returns:

Number of characters currently stored by this collector

getTextOffset

public int getTextOffset()

hasTextAsCharacters

public boolean hasTextAsCharacters()

Method that can be used to check whether textual contents can be efficiently accessed using getTextBuffer().

getTextBuffer

public char[] getTextBuffer()

contentsAsString

public String contentsAsString()

contentsAsArray

public char[] contentsAsArray()

contentsAsDecimal

public BigDecimal contentsAsDecimal()
                             throws NumberFormatException

Convenience method for converting contents of the buffer into a BigDecimal.

Throws:

NumberFormatException

contentsAsDouble

public double contentsAsDouble()
                        throws NumberFormatException

Convenience method for converting contents of the buffer into a Double value.

Throws:

NumberFormatException

ensureNotShared

public void ensureNotShared()

Method called to make sure that buffer is not using shared input buffer; if it is, it will copy such contents to private buffer.

append

public void append(char c)

append

public void append(char[] c,
                   int start,
                   int len)

append

public void append(String str,
                   int offset,
                   int len)

getCurrentSegment

public char[] getCurrentSegment()

emptyAndGetCurrentSegment

public final char[] emptyAndGetCurrentSegment()

getCurrentSegmentSize

public int getCurrentSegmentSize()

setCurrentLength

public void setCurrentLength(int len)

finishCurrentSegment

public char[] finishCurrentSegment()

expandCurrentSegment

public char[] expandCurrentSegment()

Method called to expand size of the current segment, to accomodate for more contiguous content. Usually only used when parsing tokens like names.

toString

public String toString()

Note: calling this method may not be as efficient as calling contentsAsString(), since it's not guaranteed that resulting String is cached.

Overrides:

toString in class Object
