java - Read json token (byte[]) as stream -

lets have json response like:

{    byteprop: [1, 3, 2, ... large byte content] } 

i fetch byteprop stream. have started jacksonstreamingapi , assumed should create parser like:

jsonfactory jfactory = new jsonfactory();    jsonparser jparser = jfactory.createjsonparser( myjsonstream); 

bu problem don't see oppurtunity bytepropas stream, way property use sth (assume on right token)

jparser.getbinaryvalue() 

which still fetch byteprop content memory , situation avoid.

is there way read single json property stream ?

something should work, improve see fit:

bytearrayoutputstream os = new bytearrayoutputstream();  jsonfactory jfactory = new jsonfactory(); jsonparser jparser = jfactory.createjsonparser(new fileinputstream(new file("data/json.json")));  if (jparser.nexttoken() != jsontoken.start_object) {     return; } while (jparser.nexttoken() != jsontoken.end_object) {     string fieldname = jparser.getcurrentname();      jparser.nexttoken();     if (fieldname.equals("byteprop")) {         byte[] bytes = new byte[1024];         int read = 0;         while (jparser.nexttoken() != jsontoken.end_array) {             if (read >= bytes.length) {                 os.write(bytes, 0, read);                 os.flush();                 bytes = new byte[1024];                 read = 0;             }              bytes[read++] = jparser.getbytevalue();         }         if (read >= 0) {             os.write(bytes, 0, read);             os.flush();         }     } }  system.out.println(new string(os.tobytearray())); 

replace bytearrayoutputstream fileoutputstream, depending on needs.
