Method Summary

Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`protected void`	`appendDesc(StringBuilder sb)`
`JsonWriteContext`	`clearAndGetParent()` Method that can be used to both clear the accumulated references (specifically value set with `setCurrentValue(Object)`) that should not be retained, and returns parent (as would `getParent()` do).
`JsonWriteContext`	`createChildArrayContext()`
`JsonWriteContext`	`createChildObjectContext()`
`static JsonWriteContext`	`createRootContext()` Deprecated. Since 2.3; use method that takes argument
`static JsonWriteContext`	`createRootContext(DupDetector dd)`
`String`	`getCurrentName()` Method for accessing name associated with the current location.
`Object`	`getCurrentValue()` Method for accessing currently active value being used by data-binding (as the source of streaming data to write, or destination of data being read), at this level in hierarchy.
`DupDetector`	`getDupDetector()`
`JsonWriteContext`	`getParent()` Accessor for finding parent context of this context; will return null for root context.
`protected JsonWriteContext`	`reset(int type)`
`void`	`setCurrentValue(Object v)` Method to call to pass value to be returned via `JsonStreamContext.getCurrentValue()`; typically called indirectly through `JsonParser.setCurrentValue(java.lang.Object)` or `JsonGenerator.setCurrentValue(java.lang.Object)`).
`String`	`toString()` Overridden to provide developer writeable "JsonPath" representation of the context.
`JsonWriteContext`	`withDupDetector(DupDetector dups)`
`int`	`writeFieldName(String name)` Method that writer is to call before it writes a field name.
`int`	`writeValue()`

    Description copied from class: JsonStreamContext
    
    Method for accessing currently active value being used by data-binding (as the source of streaming data to write, or destination of data being read), at this level in hierarchy.
    Note that "current value" is NOT populated (or used) by Streaming parser or generator; it is only used by higher-level data-binding functionality. The reason it is included here is that it can be stored and accessed hierarchically, and gets passed through data-binding.
    
    Overrides:
    
    getCurrentValue in class JsonStreamContext
    
    Returns:
    Currently active value, if one has been assigned.
  - setCurrentValue
```
public void setCurrentValue(Object v)
```
    Description copied from class: JsonStreamContext
    
    Method to call to pass value to be returned via JsonStreamContext.getCurrentValue(); typically called indirectly through JsonParser.setCurrentValue(java.lang.Object) or JsonGenerator.setCurrentValue(java.lang.Object)).
    
    Overrides:
    
    setCurrentValue in class JsonStreamContext
  - createRootContext
```
@Deprecated
public static JsonWriteContext createRootContext()

    Deprecated. Since 2.3; use method that takes argument
  - createRootContext

  - getParent
```
public final JsonWriteContext getParent()
```
    Description copied from class: JsonStreamContext
    
    Accessor for finding parent context of this context; will return null for root context.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getParent in class JsonStreamContext
  - getCurrentName
```
public final String getCurrentName()
```
    Description copied from class: JsonStreamContext
    
    Method for accessing name associated with the current location. Non-null for FIELD_NAME and value events that directly follow field names; null for root level and array values.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getCurrentName in class JsonStreamContext
  - clearAndGetParent
```
public JsonWriteContext clearAndGetParent()
```
    Method that can be used to both clear the accumulated references (specifically value set with setCurrentValue(Object)) that should not be retained, and returns parent (as would getParent() do). Typically called when closing the active context when encountering JsonToken.END_ARRAY or JsonToken.END_OBJECT.

public DupDetector getDupDetector()

  - writeFieldName
```
public int writeFieldName(String name)
                   throws JsonProcessingException
```
    Method that writer is to call before it writes a field name.
    
    Returns:
    Index of the field entry (0-based)
    
    Throws:
    
    JsonProcessingException
  - writeValue

protected void appendDesc(StringBuilder sb)
```
  - toString

    Overridden to provide developer writeable "JsonPath" representation of the context.
    
    Overrides:
    
    toString in class Object
