how to stream read a huge JSON file?

[TaurusNing]

is that possible?

In future, please use Jackson user mailing list for usage questions.

But quick answer is that no, there is no incremental reading at this point. Standard jackson-databind (or streaming) are better choices for that.

Thank you.
I'm not familiar with mailing list, sorry for bothering.

No prob, it's a google group:

I also filed #60 to remember that such a feature might be useful. I won't promise it would be added, mostly since it is difficult to know how far to extend this package (compared to standard jackson). But as far as ideas go, it is good one.

[TaurusNing]

Agreed.
and it's not hard to add this feature.

@TaurusNing Correct, technically speaking streaming api allows reading just fine, and then jr binder could relatively easily use that.
