Interface NumberHandler

All Superinterfaces:

JsonHandlerBase

public interface NumberHandler
extends JsonHandlerBase

Triggered on JSON array, object or standalone (top-level) number value: for example, `3.14`, `9.223372E-18`, `-1`, `0` or `9223372036854775807`.

Use this handler, if the JSON input might contain integer values lesser than Long.MIN_VALUE or greater than Long.MAX_VALUE, or very precise floating values and your need this precision, or you don't need to parse a number to the native form, for example for pretty printing JSON or sending it in text format. JsonParser can't have a NumberHandler and IntegerHandler or NumberHandler and FloatingHandler simultaneously.
