ParsePosition setIndex() method in Java with Example

The setIndex() method of java.text.ParsePosition class is used to set the current parse position of this ParsePositon object .

Syntax:

public void setIndex(int index)

Parameter: This method takes integer index at which current parse position is going to be set.

Return Value: This method has nothing to return.

Below are the examples to illustrate the setIndex() method:

Example 1:




// Java program to demonstrate
// setIndex() method
  
import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
  
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] argv)
    {
        try {
  
            // Creating and initializing
            // new ParsePosition Object
            ParsePosition pos
                = new ParsePosition(1);
  
            // set index for current
            // Parse Position object
            // using setIndex() method
            pos.setIndex(3);
  
            // getting the current
            // ParsePosition of
            int i = pos.getIndex();
  
            // display result
            System.out.println(
                "current parse position: "
                + Integer.toString(i));
        }
  
        catch (ClassCastException e) {
  
            System.out.println(e);
        }
    }
}


Output:

current parse position: 3

Example 2:




// Java program to demonstrate
// setIndex() method
  
import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
  
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] argv)
    {
        try {
  
            // Creating and initializing
            // new ParsePosition Object
            ParsePosition pos
                = new ParsePosition(500);
  
            // set index for current
            // Parse Position object
            // using setIndex() method
            pos.setIndex(30);
  
            // getting the current
            // ParsePosition of
            int i = pos.getIndex();
  
            // display result
            System.out.println(
                "current parse position: "
                + Integer.toString(i));
        }
  
        catch (ClassCastException e) {
  
            System.out.println(e);
        }
    }
}


Output:

current parse position: 30
