Base classes used by concrete Parser and Generator implementations; contain functionality that is not specific to JSON or input abstraction (byte vs char). Most formats extend these types, although it is also possible to directly extend JsonParser or JsonGenerator.

Classes

GeneratorBase This base class implements part of API that a JSON generator exposes to applications, adds shared internal methods that sub-classes can use and adds some abstract methods sub-classes must implement. 
ParserBase Intermediate base class used by all Jackson JsonParser implementations. 
ParserMinimalBase Intermediate base class used by all Jackson JsonParser implementations, but does not add any additional fields that depend on particular method of obtaining input.
