Public Constructors

public TestJSONTokener (String s)

Construct a JSONTokener from a string.

Parameters
s A source string.

Public Methods

public void back ()

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.

public static int dehexchar (char c)

Get the hex value of a character (base16).

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

public boolean more ()

Determine if the source string still contains characters that next() can consume.

Returns
  • true if not yet at the end of the source.

public char next ()

Get the next character in the source string.

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

public char next (char c)

Consume the next character, and check that it matches a specified character.

Parameters
c The character to match.
Returns
  • The character.
Throws
TestJSONException if the character does not match.

public String next (int n)

Get the next n characters.

Parameters
n The number of characters to take.
Returns
  • A string of n characters.
Throws
TestJSONException Substring bounds error if there are not n characters remaining in the source string.

public char nextClean ()

Get the next char in the string, skipping whitespace and comments (slashslash, slashstar, and hash).

Returns
  • A character, or 0 if there are no more characters.
Throws
TestJSONException in case of a syntax error

public String nextString (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.

Parameters
quote The quoting character, either " (double quote) or ' (single quote).
Returns
  • A String.
Throws
TestJSONException Unterminated string.

public String nextTo (String delimiters)

Get the text up but not including one of the specified delimeter characters or the end of line, whichever comes first.

Parameters
delimiters A set of delimiter characters.
Returns
  • A string, trimmed.

public String nextTo (char d)

Get the text up but not including the specified character or the end of line, whichever comes first.

Parameters
d A delimiter character.
Returns
  • A string.

public Object nextValue ()

Get the next value. The value can be a Boolean, Double, Integer, JSONArray, JSONObject, Long, or String, or the JSONObject.NULL object.

Returns
  • An object.
Throws
TestJSONException If syntax error.

public boolean skipPast (String to)

Skip characters until past the requested string. If it is not found, we are left at the end of the source.

Parameters
to A string to skip past.
Returns
  • false if 'to' string not found, true otherwise

public char skipTo (char to)

Skip characters until the next character is the requested character. If the requested character is not found, no characters are skipped.

Parameters
to A character to skip to.
Returns
  • The requested character, or zero if the requested character is not found.

public void syntaxError (String message)

Make a JSONException to signal a syntax error.

Parameters
message The error message.
Throws
TestJSONException object

public String toString ()

Make a printable string of this JSONTokener.

Returns
  • " at character [this.myIndex] of [this.mySource]"
