```
public class TokenBuffer
extends JsonGenerator
```
Utility class used for efficient storage of JsonToken sequences, needed for temporary buffering. Space efficient for different sequence lengths (especially so for smaller ones; but not significantly less efficient for larger), highly efficient for linear iteration and appending. Implemented as segmented/chunked linked list of tokens; only modifications are via appends.

`JsonParser`	`asParser(JsonParser src)`
`JsonParser`	`asParser(ObjectCodec codec)` Method used to create a `JsonParser` that can read contents stored in this buffer.
`JsonParser`	`asParserOnFirstToken()` Same as:
`boolean`	`canWriteBinaryNatively()` Since we can efficiently store `byte[]`, yes.
`boolean`	`canWriteObjectId()` Introspection method that may be called to see if the underlying data format supports some kind of Object Ids natively (many do not; for example, JSON doesn't).
`boolean`	`canWriteTypeId()` Introspection method that may be called to see if the underlying data format supports some kind of Type Ids natively (many do not; for example, JSON doesn't).
`void`	`close()` Method called to close this generator, so that no more content can be written.
`void`	`copyCurrentEvent(JsonParser p)` Method for copying contents of the current event that the given parser instance points to.
`void`	`copyCurrentStructure(JsonParser p)` Method for copying contents of the current event and following events that it encloses the given parser instance points to.

`int`	`writeBinary(Base64Variant b64variant, java.io.InputStream data, int dataLength)` Although we could support this method, it does not necessarily make sense: we cannot make good use of streaming because buffer must hold all the data.
`void`	`writeBoolean(boolean state)` Method for outputting literal JSON boolean value (one of Strings 'true' and 'false').
`void`	`writeEmbeddedObject(java.lang.Object object)` Method that can be called on backends that support passing opaque native values that some data formats support; not used with JSON backend, more common with binary formats.

`void`	`writeObjectId(java.lang.Object id)` Method that can be called to output so-called native Object Id.
`void`	`writeRaw(char c)` Method that will force generator to copy input text verbatim with no modifications (including that no escaping is done and no separators are added even if context [array, object] would otherwise require such).

`void`	`writeRaw(java.lang.String text, int offset, int len)` Method that will force generator to copy input text verbatim with no modifications (including that no escaping is done and no separators are added even if context [array, object] would otherwise require such).
`void`	`writeRawUTF8String(byte[] text, int offset, int length)` Method similar to `JsonGenerator.writeString(String)` but that takes as its input a UTF-8 encoded String that is to be output as-is, without additional escaping (type of which depends on data format; backslashes for JSON).
`void`	`writeRawValue(char[] text, int offset, int len)`
`void`	`writeRawValue(java.lang.String text)` Method that will force generator to copy input text verbatim without any modifications, but assuming it must constitute a single legal JSON value (number, string, boolean, null, Array or List).
`void`	`writeRawValue(java.lang.String text, int offset, int len)`
`void`	`writeStartArray()` Method for writing starting marker of a Array value (for JSON this is character '['; plus possible white space decoration if pretty-printing is enabled).
`void`	`writeStartArray(java.lang.Object forValue)` Method for writing start marker of an Array value, similar to `JsonGenerator.writeStartArray()`, but also specifying the "current value" to assign to the new Array context being created.
`void`	`writeStartArray(java.lang.Object forValue, int size)` Method for writing start marker of an Array value, similar to `JsonGenerator.writeStartArray()`, but also specifying the "current value" to assign to the new Array context being created as well as how many elements will be written for the array before calling `JsonGenerator.writeEndArray()`.

`void`	`writeString(char[] text, int offset, int len)` Method for outputting a String value.
`void`	`writeString(SerializableString text)` Method similar to `JsonGenerator.writeString(String)`, but that takes `SerializableString` which can make this potentially more efficient to call as generator may be able to reuse quoted and/or encoded representation.
`void`	`writeString(java.lang.String text)` Method for outputting a String value.
`void`	`writeTree(TreeNode node)` Method for writing given JSON tree (expressed as a tree where given JsonNode is the root) using this generator.
`void`	`writeTypeId(java.lang.Object id)` Method that can be called to output so-called native Type Id.
`void`	`writeUTF8String(byte[] text, int offset, int length)` Method similar to `JsonGenerator.writeString(String)` but that takes as its input a UTF-8 encoded String which has not been escaped using whatever escaping scheme data format requires (for JSON that is backslash-escaping for control characters and double-quotes; for other formats something else).

    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method called to close this generator, so that no more content can be written.
    Whether the underlying target (stream, writer) gets closed depends on whether this generator either manages the target (i.e. is the only one with access to the target -- case if caller passes a reference to the resource such as File, but not stream); or has feature JsonGenerator.Feature.AUTO_CLOSE_TARGET enabled. If either of above is true, the target is also closed. Otherwise (not managing, feature not enabled), target is not closed.

    writeStartArray in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    forValue - "Current value" to assign for the Array context being created
    
    size - Number of elements this Array will have: actual number of values written (before matching call to JsonGenerator.writeEndArray() MUST match; generator MAY verify this is the case (and SHOULD if format itself encodes length)
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - if there is either an underlying I/O problem or encoding issue at format layer

```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method for writing starting marker of an Object value to represent the given Java Object value. Argument is offered as metadata, but more importantly it should be assigned as the "current value" for the Object content that gets constructed and initialized.
    Object values can be written in any context where values are allowed: meaning everywhere except for when a field name is expected.
    
    Overrides:

```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method for writing starting marker of an Object value to represent the given Java Object value. Argument is offered as metadata, but more importantly it should be assigned as the "current value" for the Object content that gets constructed and initialized. In addition, caller knows number of key/value pairs ("properties") that will get written for the Object value: this is relevant for some format backends (but not, as an example, for JSON).
    Object values can be written in any context where values are allowed: meaning everywhere except for when a field name is expected.
    
    Overrides:
    
    writeStartObject in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    forValue - "Current value" to assign for the Object context being created
    
    size - Number of key/value pairs this Object will have: actual number of entries written (before matching call to JsonGenerator.writeEndObject() MUST match; generator MAY verify this is the case (and SHOULD if format itself encodes length)
    
    Throws:

```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method for writing closing marker of an Object value (character '}'; plus possible white space decoration if pretty-printing is enabled).
    Marker can be written if the innermost structured type is Object, and the last written event was either a complete value, or START-OBJECT marker (see JSON specification for more details).
    
    Specified by:

public final void writeFieldName(java.lang.String name)
                          throws java.io.IOException
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method for writing a field name (JSON String surrounded by double quotes: syntactically identical to a JSON String value), possibly decorated by white space if pretty-printing is enabled.
    Field names can only be written in Object context (check out JSON specification for details), when field name is expected (field names alternate with values).
    
    Specified by:
    
    writeFieldName in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - Field name to write
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - if there is either an underlying I/O problem or encoding issue at format layer
  - writeFieldName
```
public void writeFieldName(SerializableString name)
                    throws java.io.IOException
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method similar to JsonGenerator.writeFieldName(String), main difference being that it may perform better as some of processing (such as quoting of certain characters, or encoding into external encoding if supported by generator) can be done just once and reused for later calls.
    Default implementation simple uses unprocessed name container in serialized String; implementations are strongly encouraged to make use of more efficient methods argument object has.
    
    Specified by:
    
    writeFieldName in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - Field name to write
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - if there is either an underlying I/O problem or encoding issue at format layer
  - writeString
```
public void writeString(java.lang.String text)
                 throws java.io.IOException
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method for outputting a String value. Depending on context this means either array element, (object) field value or a stand alone String; but in all cases, String will be surrounded in double quotes, and contents will be properly escaped as required by JSON specification.
    
    Specified by:
    
    writeString in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    text - Text value to write

    Method for outputting a String value. Depending on context this means either array element, (object) field value or a stand alone String; but in all cases, String will be surrounded in double quotes, and contents will be properly escaped as required by JSON specification.
    
    Specified by:
    
    writeString in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    text - Buffer that contains String value to write
    
    offset - Offset in buffer of the first character of String value to write
    
    len - Length of the String value (in characters) to write
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - if there is either an underlying I/O problem or encoding issue at format layer
  - writeString
```
public void writeString(SerializableString text)
                 throws java.io.IOException
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method similar to JsonGenerator.writeString(String), but that takes SerializableString which can make this potentially more efficient to call as generator may be able to reuse quoted and/or encoded representation.
    Default implementation just calls JsonGenerator.writeString(String); sub-classes should override it with more efficient implementation if possible.
    
    Specified by:
    
    writeString in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    text - Pre-encoded String value to write
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - if there is either an underlying I/O problem or encoding issue at format layer
  - writeRawUTF8String
```
public void writeRawUTF8String(byte[] text,
                               int offset,
                               int length)
                        throws java.io.IOException
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method similar to JsonGenerator.writeString(String) but that takes as its input a UTF-8 encoded String that is to be output as-is, without additional escaping (type of which depends on data format; backslashes for JSON). However, quoting that data format requires (like double-quotes for JSON) will be added around the value if and as necessary.
    Note that some backends may choose not to support this method: for example, if underlying destination is a Writer using this method would require UTF-8 decoding. If so, implementation may instead choose to throw a UnsupportedOperationException due to ineffectiveness of having to decode input.
    
    Specified by:
    
    writeRawUTF8String in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    text - Buffer that contains String value to write
    
    offset - Offset in buffer of the first byte of String value to write
    
    length - Length of the String value (in characters) to write
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - if there is either an underlying I/O problem or encoding issue at format layer
  - writeUTF8String

                     throws java.io.IOException
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method similar to JsonGenerator.writeString(String) but that takes as its input a UTF-8 encoded String which has not been escaped using whatever escaping scheme data format requires (for JSON that is backslash-escaping for control characters and double-quotes; for other formats something else). This means that textual JSON backends need to check if value needs JSON escaping, but otherwise can just be copied as is to output. Also, quoting that data format requires (like double-quotes for JSON) will be added around the value if and as necessary.
    Note that some backends may choose not to support this method: for example, if underlying destination is a Writer using this method would require UTF-8 decoding. In this case generator implementation may instead choose to throw a UnsupportedOperationException due to ineffectiveness of having to decode input.
    
    Specified by:
    
    writeUTF8String in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    text - Buffer that contains String value to write

```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method that will force generator to copy input text verbatim with no modifications (including that no escaping is done and no separators are added even if context [array, object] would otherwise require such). If such separators are desired, use JsonGenerator.writeRawValue(String) instead.
    Note that not all generator implementations necessarily support such by-pass methods: those that do not will throw UnsupportedOperationException.
    
    Specified by:
    
    writeRaw in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    text - Textual contents to include as-is in output.

public void writeNumber(java.lang.String encodedValue)
                 throws java.io.IOException
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Write method that can be used for custom numeric types that can not be (easily?) converted to "standard" Java number types. Because numbers are not surrounded by double quotes, regular JsonGenerator.writeString(java.lang.String) method can not be used; nor JsonGenerator.writeRaw(java.lang.String) because that does not properly handle value separators needed in Array or Object contexts.
    Note: because of lack of type safety, some generator implementations may not be able to implement this method. For example, if a binary JSON format is used, it may require type information for encoding; similarly for generator-wrappers around Java objects or JSON nodes. If implementation does not implement this method, it needs to throw UnsupportedOperationException.
    
    Specified by:
    
    writeNumber in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    encodedValue - Textual (possibly format) number representation to write
    
    Throws:

    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method for outputting literal JSON boolean value (one of Strings 'true' and 'false'). Can be called in any context where a value is expected (Array value, Object field value, root-level value). Additional white space may be added around the value if pretty-printing is enabled.
    
    Specified by:
    
    writeBoolean in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:

    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Older alias for JsonGenerator.writePOJO(Object)
    
    Specified by:
    
    writeObject in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - Java value (usually POJO) to write

```
public void writeTree(TreeNode node)
               throws java.io.IOException
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method for writing given JSON tree (expressed as a tree where given JsonNode is the root) using this generator. This will generally just call JsonGenerator.writeObject(java.lang.Object) with given node, but is added for convenience and to make code more explicit in cases where it deals specifically with trees.
    
    Specified by:
    
    writeTree in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    node - TreeNode to write
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - if there is either an underlying I/O problem or encoding issue at format layer
  - writeBinary
```
public void writeBinary(Base64Variant b64variant,
                        byte[] data,
                        int offset,
                        int len)
                 throws java.io.IOException
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method that will output given chunk of binary data as base64 encoded, as a complete String value (surrounded by double quotes). This method defaults
    Note: because JSON Strings can not contain unescaped linefeeds, if linefeeds are included (as per last argument), they must be escaped. This adds overhead for decoding without improving readability. Alternatively if linefeeds are not included, resulting String value may violate the requirement of base64 RFC which mandates line-length of 76 characters and use of linefeeds. However, all JsonParser implementations are required to accept such "long line base64"; as do typical production-level base64 decoders.
    
    Specified by:
    
    writeBinary in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    b64variant - Base64 variant to use: defines details such as whether padding is used (and if so, using which character); what is the maximum line length before adding linefeed, and also the underlying alphabet to use.
    
    data - Buffer that contains binary data to write
    
    offset - Offset in data of the first byte of data to write
    
    len - Length of data to write
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - if there is either an underlying I/O problem or encoding issue at format layer
  - writeBinary
```
public int writeBinary(Base64Variant b64variant,
                       java.io.InputStream data,
                       int dataLength)
```
    Although we could support this method, it does not necessarily make sense: we cannot make good use of streaming because buffer must hold all the data. Because of this, currently this will simply throw UnsupportedOperationException
    
    Specified by:
    
    writeBinary in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    b64variant - Base64 variant to use
    
    data - InputStream to use for reading binary data to write. Will not be closed after successful write operation
    
    dataLength - (optional) number of bytes that will be available; or -1 to be indicate it is not known. If a positive length is given, data MUST provide at least that many bytes: if not, an exception will be thrown. Note that implementations need not support cases where length is not known in advance; this depends on underlying data format: JSON output does NOT require length, other formats may.
    
    Returns:
    
    Number of bytes read from data and written as binary payload
  - canWriteTypeId
```
public boolean canWriteTypeId()
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Introspection method that may be called to see if the underlying data format supports some kind of Type Ids natively (many do not; for example, JSON doesn't). This method must be called prior to calling JsonGenerator.writeTypeId(java.lang.Object).
    Default implementation returns false; overridden by data formats that do support native Type Ids. Caller is expected to either use a non-native notation (explicit property or such), or fail, in case it can not use native type ids.
    
    Overrides:
    
    canWriteTypeId in class JsonGenerator
    
    Returns:
    
    True if this generator is capable of writing "native" Type Ids (which is typically determined by capabilities of the underlying format), false if not
  - canWriteObjectId
```
public boolean canWriteObjectId()
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Introspection method that may be called to see if the underlying data format supports some kind of Object Ids natively (many do not; for example, JSON doesn't). This method must be called prior to calling JsonGenerator.writeObjectId(java.lang.Object) or JsonGenerator.writeObjectRef(java.lang.Object).
    Default implementation returns false; overridden by data formats that do support native Object Ids. Caller is expected to either use a non-native notation (explicit property or such), or fail, in case it can not use native object ids.
    
    Overrides:
    
    canWriteObjectId in class JsonGenerator
    
    Returns:
    
    True if this generator is capable of writing "native" Object Ids (which is typically determined by capabilities of the underlying format), false if not
  - writeTypeId
```
public void writeTypeId(java.lang.Object id)
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method that can be called to output so-called native Type Id. Note that it may only be called after ensuring this is legal (with JsonGenerator.canWriteTypeId()), as not all data formats have native type id support; and some may only allow them in certain positions or locations. If output is not allowed by the data format in this position, a JsonGenerationException will be thrown.
    
    Overrides:
    
    writeTypeId in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    id - Native Type Id to write
  - writeObjectId
```
public void writeObjectId(java.lang.Object id)
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method that can be called to output so-called native Object Id. Note that it may only be called after ensuring this is legal (with JsonGenerator.canWriteObjectId()), as not all data formats have native type id support; and some may only allow them in certain positions or locations. If output is not allowed by the data format in this position, a JsonGenerationException will be thrown.
    
    Overrides:
    
    writeObjectId in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    id - Native Object Id to write
  - writeEmbeddedObject
```
public void writeEmbeddedObject(java.lang.Object object)
                         throws java.io.IOException
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method that can be called on backends that support passing opaque native values that some data formats support; not used with JSON backend, more common with binary formats.
    NOTE: this is NOT the method to call for serializing regular POJOs, see JsonGenerator.writeObject(java.lang.Object) instead.
    
    Overrides:
    
    writeEmbeddedObject in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    object - Native format-specific value to write
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - if there is either an underlying I/O problem or encoding issue at format layer
  - copyCurrentEvent
```
public void copyCurrentEvent(JsonParser p)
                      throws java.io.IOException
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    
    Method for copying contents of the current event that the given parser instance points to. Note that the method will not copy any other events, such as events contained within JSON Array or Object structures.
    Calling this method will not advance the given parser, although it may cause parser to internally process more data (if it lazy loads contents of value events, for example)
    
    Overrides:
    
    copyCurrentEvent in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    p - Parser that points to event (token) to copy
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - if there is either an underlying I/O problem or encoding issue at format layer
  - copyCurrentStructure
```
public void copyCurrentStructure(JsonParser p)
                          throws java.io.IOException
```
    Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
    Method for copying contents of the current event and following events that it encloses the given parser instance points to.
    So what constitutes enclosing? Here is the list of events that have associated enclosed events that will get copied:
    - JsonToken.START_OBJECT: all events up to and including matching (closing) JsonToken.END_OBJECT will be copied
    - JsonToken.START_ARRAY all events up to and including matching (closing) JsonToken.END_ARRAY will be copied
    - JsonToken.FIELD_NAME the logical value (which can consist of a single scalar value; or a sequence of related events for structured types (JSON Arrays, Objects)) will be copied along with the name itself. So essentially the whole field entry (name and value) will be copied.
    After calling this method, parser will point to the last event that was copied. This will either be the event parser already pointed to (if there were no enclosed events), or the last enclosed event copied.
    Overrides:
    
    copyCurrentStructure in class JsonGenerator
    
    Parameters:
    
    p - Parser that points to the value to copy
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - if there is either an underlying I/O problem or encoding issue at format layer
