Packages that use com.fasterxml.jackson.core.util
Package | Description
--- | ---
com.fasterxml.jackson.core | Main public API classes of the core streaming JSON processor: most importantly `JsonFactory` used for constructing JSON parser (`JsonParser`) and generator (`JsonGenerator`) instances.
com.fasterxml.jackson.core.base | Base classes used by concrete Parser and Generator implementations; contain functionality that is not specific to JSON or input abstraction (byte vs char).
com.fasterxml.jackson.core.io |
com.fasterxml.jackson.core.util | Utility classes used by Jackson Core functionality.

Classes in com.fasterxml.jackson.core.util used by com.fasterxml.jackson.core
Class and Description
BufferRecycler This is a small utility class, whose main functionality is to allow simple reuse of raw byte/char buffers.
ByteArrayBuilder Helper class that is similar to `ByteArrayOutputStream` in usage, but more geared to Jackson use cases internally.

ByteArrayBuilder Helper class that is similar to `ByteArrayOutputStream` in usage, but more geared to Jackson use cases internally.
TextBuffer TextBuffer is a class similar to `StringBuffer`, with following differences: TextBuffer uses segments character arrays, to avoid having to do additional array copies when array is not big enough.

DefaultIndenter Default linefeed-based indenter, used by `DefaultPrettyPrinter` (unless overridden).
DefaultPrettyPrinter Default `PrettyPrinter` implementation that uses 2-space indentation with platform-default linefeeds.
DefaultPrettyPrinter.FixedSpaceIndenter This is a very simple indenter that only every adds a single space for indentation.
DefaultPrettyPrinter.Indenter Interface that defines objects that can produce indentation used to separate object entries and array values.
DefaultPrettyPrinter.Lf2SpacesIndenter Deprecated. Since 2.5 use `DefaultIndenter` instead
DefaultPrettyPrinter.NopIndenter Dummy implementation that adds no indentation whatsoever
Instantiatable Add-on interface used to indicate things that may be "blueprint" objects which can not be used as is, but are used for creating usable per-process (serialization, deserialization) instances, using `Instantiatable.createInstance()` method.
InternCache Singleton class that adds a simple first-level cache in front of regular String.intern() functionality.
JsonParserDelegate Helper class that implements delegation pattern for `JsonParser`, to allow for simple overridability of basic parsing functionality.
JsonParserSequence Helper class that can be used to sequence multiple physical `JsonParser`s to create a single logical sequence of tokens, as a single `JsonParser`.
