public Interface NonBlockingInputFeeder

Known Direct Subinterfaces
com.fasterxml.jackson.core.async.ByteArrayFeeder, com.fasterxml.jackson.core.async.ByteBufferFeeder
Interface used by non-blocking com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParser implementations to feed input to parse. Feeder is used by entity that feeds content to parse; at any given point only one chunk of content can be processed so caller has to take care to only feed more content when existing content has been parsed (which occurs when parser's nextToken is called). Once application using non-blocking parser has no more data to feed it should call endOfInput to indicate end of logical input (stream) to parse.
