## com.fasterxml.jackson.core
Class JsonStreamContext

    java.lang.Object
      com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonStreamContext

Direct Known Subclasses:
  JsonReadContext, JsonWriteContext

    public abstract class JsonStreamContext

extends Object

Shared base class for streaming processing contexts used during reading and writing of Json content using Streaming API. This context is also exposed to applications: context object can be used by applications to get an idea of relative position of the parser/generator within json content being processed. This allows for some contextual processing: for example, output within Array context can differ from that of Object context.

Field Summary
`protected int` | `_index` Index of the currently processed entry.
`protected int` | `_type`
`protected static int` | `TYPE_ARRAY`
`protected static int` | `TYPE_OBJECT`
`protected static int` | `TYPE_ROOT`

Constructor Summary
`protected` | `JsonStreamContext()`

Method Summary
`int` | `getCurrentIndex()`
`abstract String` | `getCurrentName()` Method for accessing name associated with the current location.
`int` | `getEntryCount()`
`abstract JsonStreamContext` | `getParent()` Accessor for finding parent context of this context; will return null for root context.
`String` | `getTypeDesc()` Method for accessing simple type description of current context; either ROOT (for root-level values), OBJECT (for field names and values of JSON Objects) or ARRAY (for values of JSON Arrays)
`boolean` | `inArray()` Method that returns true if this context is an Array context; that is, content is being read from or written to a Json Array.
`boolean` | `inObject()` Method that returns true if this context is an Object context; that is, content is being read from or written to a Json Object.
`boolean` | `inRoot()` Method that returns true if this context is a Root context; that is, content is being read from or written to without enclosing array or object structure.

Field Detail

### TYPE_ROOT

    protected static final int TYPE_ROOT

See Also:
  Constant Field Values

### TYPE_ARRAY

    protected static final int TYPE_ARRAY

See Also:
  Constant Field Values

### TYPE_OBJECT

    protected static final int TYPE_OBJECT

See Also:
  Constant Field Values

### _type

    protected int _type

### _index

    protected int _index

  Index of the currently processed entry. Starts with -1 to signal that no entries have been started, and gets advanced each time a new entry is started, either by encountering an expected separator, or with new values if no separators are expected (the case for root context).

Constructor Detail

### JsonStreamContext

    protected JsonStreamContext()

Method Detail

### getParent

    public abstract JsonStreamContext getParent()

  Accessor for finding parent context of this context; will return null for root context.

### inArray

    public final boolean inArray()

  Method that returns true if this context is an Array context; that is, content is being read from or written to a Json Array.

### inRoot

    public final boolean inRoot()

  Method that returns true if this context is a Root context; that is, content is being read from or written to without enclosing array or object structure.

### inObject

    public final boolean inObject()

  Method that returns true if this context is an Object context; that is, content is being read from or written to a Json Object.

### getTypeDesc

    public final String getTypeDesc()

  Method for accessing simple type description of current context; either ROOT (for root-level values), OBJECT (for field names and values of JSON Objects) or ARRAY (for values of JSON Arrays)

### getEntryCount

    public final int getEntryCount()

  Returns:
    Number of entries that are complete and started.

### getCurrentIndex

    public final int getCurrentIndex()

  Returns:
    Index of the currently processed entry, if any

### getCurrentName

    public abstract String getCurrentName()

  Method for accessing name associated with the current location. Non-null for `FIELD_NAME` and value events that directly follow field names; null for root level and array values.
