- public class ParsePosition
- extends Object
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.
