ParsePosition

public class ParsePosition
extends Object

java.lang.Object
↳	java.text.ParsePosition

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.

Summary

Public constructors
`ParsePosition(int index)` Create a new ParsePosition with the given initial index.

Public methods
`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.

Inherited methods

From class


        
          java.lang.Object

`Object`	`clone()` Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`void`	`finalize()` Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.
`final Class<?>`	`getClass()` Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
`int`	`hashCode()` Returns a hash code value for the object.
`final void`	`notify()` Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void`	`notifyAll()` Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
`String`	`toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis, int nanos)` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis)` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait()` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted.

Public constructors

ParsePosition

Added in API level 1

public ParsePosition (int index)

Create a new ParsePosition with the given initial index.

Parameters
`index`	`int`: initial index

Public methods

equals

Added in API level 1

public boolean equals (Object obj)

Overrides equals

Parameters
`obj`	`Object`: the reference object with which to compare.

Returns
`boolean`	`true` if this object is the same as the obj argument; `false` otherwise.

getErrorIndex

Added in API level 1

public int getErrorIndex ()

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

Returns
`int`	the index at which an error occurred

getIndex

Added in API level 1

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.

Returns
`int`	the current parse position

hashCode

Added in API level 1

public int hashCode ()

Returns a hash code for this ParsePosition.

Returns
`int`	a hash code value for this object

setErrorIndex

Added in API level 1

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`	`int`: the index at which an error occurred

setIndex

Added in API level 1

public void setIndex (int index)

Set the current parse position.

Parameters
`index`	`int`: the current parse position

toString

Added in API level 1

public String toString ()

Return a string representation of this ParsePosition.

Returns
`String`	a string representation of this object
