Last Updated :

The current() method of java.text.BreakIterator class is used to get the index of recent text boundary in the line of words. It provides the offset of the text which is currently pointed by the BreakIterator.
Syntax:
public abstract int current()
Parameter: This method does not accept any parameter.
Return Value: This method provides the index of recent text boundary.
Below are the examples to illustrate the current() method:
Example 1:
import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] argv)
{
int current = 0 , last = 0 ;
BreakIterator wb
= BreakIterator.getWordInstance();
wb.setText( "Code Geeks" );
current = wb.current();
System.out.println(
"current position "
+ "before calling next(): "
+ current);
last = wb.next();
current = wb.current();
System.out.println(
"\ncurrent position after"
+ " calling 1st next(): "
+ current);
last = wb.next();
current = wb.current();
System.out.println(
"\ncurrent position after"
+ " calling 2nd next(): "
+ current);
}
}
|
Output:
current position before calling next(): 0
current position after calling 1st next(): 4
current position after calling 2nd next(): 6
Example 2:
import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] argv)
{
int current = 0 , last = 0 ;
BreakIterator wb
= BreakIterator.getWordInstance();
wb.setText( "GeeksForGeeks" );
current = wb.current();
System.out.println(
"current position "
+ "before calling next(): "
+ current);
last = wb.next();
current = wb.current();
System.out.println(
"\ncurrent position after"
+ " calling 1st next(): "
+ current);
last = wb.next();
current = wb.current();
System.out.println(
"\ncurrent position after"
+ " calling 2nd next(): "
+ current);
}
}

Output:
current position before calling next(): 0
current position after calling 1st next(): 13
current position after calling 2nd next(): 13
