Constructors

Token()

No-argument constructor

Declaration
public Token()

Token(int)

Constructs a new token for the specified Image.

Declaration
public Token(int kind)
Parameters
Type Name Description
int kind

Token(int, string)

Constructs a new token for the specified Image and Kind.

Declaration
public Token(int kind, string image)
Parameters
Type Name Description
int kind
string image

Properties

BeginColumn

The column number of the first character of this Token.

Declaration
public int BeginColumn { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
int

BeginLine

The line number of the first character of this Token.

Declaration
public int BeginLine { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
int

EndColumn

The column number of the last character of this Token.

Declaration
public int EndColumn { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
int

EndLine

The line number of the last character of this Token.

Declaration
public int EndLine { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
int

Image

The string image of the token.

Declaration
public string Image { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
string

Kind

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.

Declaration
public int Kind { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
int

Next

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.

Declaration
public Token Next { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
Token

SpecialToken

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.

Declaration
public Token SpecialToken { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
Token

Value

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.

Declaration
public virtual object Value { get; }
Property Value
Type Description
object

Methods

NewToken(int)

Describes the input token stream.

Declaration
public static Token NewToken(int ofKind)
Parameters
Type Name Description
int ofKind
Returns
Type Description
Token

NewToken(int, 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.

Declaration
public static Token NewToken(int ofKind, string image)
Parameters
Type Name Description
int ofKind
string image
Returns
Type Description
Token

ToString()

Returns the image.

Declaration
public override string ToString()
