JSONTokener

public class JSONTokener extends Object
A JSONTokener takes a source string and extracts characters and tokens from it. It is used by the JSONObject and JSONArray constructors to parse JSON source strings.
author
JSON.org
version
2

Fields Summary
private int
myIndex
The index of the next character.
private String
mySource
The source string being tokenized.
Constructors Summary
public JSONTokener(String s)
Construct a JSONTokener from a string.

param
s A source string.

        this.myIndex = 0;
        this.mySource = s;
    
Methods Summary
public voidback()
Back up one character. This provides a sort of lookahead capability, so that you can test for a digit or letter before attempting to parse the next number or identifier.

        if (this.myIndex > 0) {
            this.myIndex -= 1;
        }
    
public static intdehexchar(char c)
Get the hex value of a character (base16).

param
c A character between '0' and '9' or between 'A' and 'F' or between 'a' and 'f'.
return
An int between 0 and 15, or -1 if c was not a hex digit.

        if (c >= '0" && c <= '9") {
            return c - '0";
        }
        if (c >= 'A" && c <= 'F") {
            return c - ('A" - 10);
        }
        if (c >= 'a" && c <= 'f") {
            return c - ('a" - 10);
        }
        return -1;
    
public booleanmore()
Determine if the source string still contains characters that next() can consume.

return
true if not yet at the end of the source.

        return this.myIndex < this.mySource.length();
    
public charnext()
Get the next character in the source string.

return
The next character, or 0 if past the end of the source string.

        if (more()) {
            char c = this.mySource.charAt(this.myIndex);
            this.myIndex += 1;
            return c;
        }
        return 0;
    
public charnext(char c)
Consume the next character, and check that it matches a specified character.

param
c The character to match.
return
The character.
throws
JSONException if the character does not match.

        char n = next();
        if (n != c) {
            throw syntaxError("Expected '" + c + "' and instead saw '" +
                    n + "'.");
        }
        return n;
    
public java.lang.Stringnext(int n)
Get the next n characters.

param
n The number of characters to take.
return
A string of n characters.
throws
JSONException Substring bounds error if there are not n characters remaining in the source string.

         int i = this.myIndex;
         int j = i + n;
         if (j >= this.mySource.length()) {
            throw syntaxError("Substring bounds error");
         }
         this.myIndex += n;
         return this.mySource.substring(i, j);
     
public charnextClean()
Get the next char in the string, skipping whitespace and comments (slashslash, slashstar, and hash).

throws
JSONException
return
A character, or 0 if there are no more characters.

public java.lang.StringnextString(char quote)
Return the characters up to the next close quote character. Backslash processing is done. The formal JSON format does not allow strings in single quotes, but an implementation is allowed to accept them.
