Type Parameters:

O - the type of option object this parser accepts

All Known Implementing Classes:

NoOptParserSupport, ParserSupport
```
public interface Parser<O>
```
A parser converts a request body into an object.
Parsers power the Context.parse(Parse) mechanism.
The ParserSupport class is a convenient base; the documentation of which contains implementation examples.
