The Token type exposes the following members.

Constructors

  NameDescription
Public methodToken()()()()
No-argument constructor
Public methodToken(Int32)
Constructs a new token for the specified Image.
Public methodToken(Int32, String)
Constructs a new token for the specified Image and Kind.

Methods

  NameDescription
Public methodEquals
Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodFinalize
Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetHashCode
Serves as a hash function for a particular type.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetValue
An optional attribute value of the Token. Tokens which are not used as syntactic sugar will often contain meaningful values that will be used later on by the compiler or interpreter. This attribute value is often different from the image. Any subclass of Token that actually wants to return a non-null value can override this method as appropriate.
Protected methodMemberwiseClone
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodStatic memberNewToken(Int32)
Public methodStatic memberNewToken(Int32, String)
Returns a new Token object, by default. However, if you want, you can create and return subclass objects based on the value of ofKind. Simply add the cases to the switch for all those special cases. For example, if you have a subclass of Token called IDToken that you want to create if ofKind is ID, simply add something like : case MyParserConstants.ID : return new IDToken(ofKind, image); to the following switch statement. Then you can cast matchedToken variable to the appropriate type and use sit in your lexical actions.
Public methodToString
Returns the image.
(Overrides Object..::..ToString()()()().)

Fields

  NameDescription
Public fieldbeginColumn
The column number of the first character of this Token.
Public fieldbeginLine
The line number of the first character of this Token.
Public fieldendColumn
The column number of the last character of this Token.
Public fieldendLine
The line number of the last character of this Token.
Public fieldimage
The string image of the token.
Public fieldkind
An integer that describes the kind of this token. This numbering system is determined by JavaCCParser, and a table of these numbers is stored in the file ...Constants.java.
Public fieldnext
A reference to the next regular (non-special) token from the input stream. If this is the last token from the input stream, or if the token manager has not read tokens beyond this one, this field is set to null. This is true only if this token is also a regular token. Otherwise, see below for a description of the contents of this field.
Public fieldspecialToken
This field is used to access special tokens that occur prior to this token, but after the immediately preceding regular (non-special) token. If there are no such special tokens, this field is set to null. When there are more than one such special token, this field refers to the last of these special tokens, which in turn refers to the next previous special token through its specialToken field, and so on until the first special token (whose specialToken field is null). The next fields of special tokens refer to other special tokens that immediately follow it (without an intervening regular token). If there is no such token, this field is null.
