Interface JsonLocation

Contents

  • public interface JsonLocation
    Provides the location information of a JSON event in an input source. The JsonLocation information can be used to identify incorrect JSON or can be used by higher frameworks to know about the processing location.

    All the information provided by a JsonLocation is optional. For example, a provider may only report line numbers. Also, there may not be any location information for an input source. For example, if a JsonParser is created using JsonArray input source, all the methods in this class return -1.
