ParsePosition setIndex() method in Java with Example

Last Updated : 22 Jan, 2020

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); 
        } 
    } 
}
