## Class MappingIterator<T>

- java.lang.Object
- - com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.MappingIterator<T>

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Closeable, java.lang.AutoCloseable, java.util.Iterator<T>

      public class MappingIterator<T>
      extends java.lang.Object
      implements java.util.Iterator<T>, java.io.Closeable

  Iterator exposed by `ObjectMapper` when binding sequence of objects. Extension is done to allow more convenient exposing of `IOException` (which basic `Iterator` does not expose)

    Fields
    Modifier and Type | Field and Description
    --- | ---
    `protected boolean` | `_closeParser` Flag that indicates whether input `JsonParser` should be closed when we are done or not; generally only called when caller did not pass JsonParser.
    `protected DeserializationContext` | `_context` Context for deserialization, needed to pass through to deserializer
    `protected JsonDeserializer<T>` | `_deserializer` Deserializer for individual element values.
    `protected com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParser` | `_parser` Underlying parser used for reading content to bind.
    `protected com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonStreamContext` | `_seqContext` Context to resynchronize to, in case an exception is encountered but caller wants to try to read more elements.
    `protected int` | `_state` State of the iterator
    `protected JavaType` | `_type` Type to bind individual elements to.
    `protected T` | `_updatedValue` If not null, "value to update" instead of creating a new instance for each call.
    `protected static MappingIterator<?>` | `EMPTY_ITERATOR`
    `protected static int` | `STATE_CLOSED` State in which iterator is closed
    `protected static int` | `STATE_HAS_VALUE` State in which "hasNextValue()" has been succesfully called and deserializer can be called to fetch value
    `protected static int` | `STATE_MAY_HAVE_VALUE` State in which no recovery is needed, but "hasNextValue()" needs to be called first
    `protected static int` | `STATE_NEED_RESYNC` State in which value read failed

    Constructors
    Modifier | Constructor and Description

  - ### Method Summary

    Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `protected <R> R` | `_handleIOException(java.io.IOException e)`
    `protected <R> R` | `_handleMappingException(JsonMappingException e)`

    `com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonLocation` | `getCurrentLocation()` Convenience method, functionally equivalent to: `iterator.getParser().getCurrentLocation()`
    `com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParser` | `getParser()` Accessor for getting underlying parser this iterator uses.
    `com.fasterxml.jackson.core.FormatSchema` | `getParserSchema()` Accessor for accessing `FormatSchema` that the underlying parser (as per `getParser()`) is using, if any; only parser of schema-aware formats use schemas.
    `boolean` | `hasNext()`
    `boolean` | `hasNextValue()` Equivalent of `next()` but one that may throw checked exceptions from Jackson due to invalid input.
    `T` | `next()`
    `T` | `nextValue()`
    `java.util.List<T>` | `readAll()` Convenience method for reading all entries accessible via this iterator; resulting container will be a `ArrayList`.

  - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### MappingIterator

          protected MappingIterator(JavaType type,
                         com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParser p,
                         DeserializationContext ctxt,

      Parameters:
        `managedParser` - Whether we "own" the `JsonParser` passed or not: if true, it was created by `ObjectReader` and code here needs to close it; if false, it was passed by calling code and should not be closed by iterator.
