Hi,
I understand the THIS keyword is used in classes definitions to call its own methods and variables. However, what does CURRENT do? These are very difficult terms to search for in google as you can imagine.

Hi Adam,
"current" isn't a keyword in Java. If you saw this in a program it was either a variable name or a method name defined in that program.

oh my then it's an object reference since this code has
current.foo().bar()
all over the place. Thanks!

If it has foo and bar in, then it is example code. "Foo" and "Bar" are the two names used in coding because it takes too long to write whatJaMaCallIt.thingAMiJig(youKnowWhatIMean);
