Class FileTokenizer
FileTokenizer
class takes an input stream and
parses it into "tokens", allowing the tokens to be
read one at a time. The parsing process is controlled by a table
and a number of flags that can be set to various states. The
stream tokenizer can recognize identifiers, numbers, quoted
strings, and various comment styles.
FileTokenizer uses StreamTokenizer and its methodes.- Author:

ttype
public int ttypeAfter a call to thenextToken
method, this field contains the type of the token just read. For a single character token, its value is the single character, converted to an integer. For a quoted string token (see , its value is the quote character. Otherwise, its value is one of the following:TT_WORD
indicates that the token is a word.TT_NUMBER
indicates that the token is a number.TT_EOL
indicates that the end of line has been read. The field can only have this value if theeolIsSignificant
method has been called with the argumenttrue
.TT_EOF
indicates that the end of the input stream has been reached.

sval
If the current token is a word token, this field contains a string giving the characters of the word token. When the current token is a quoted string token, this field contains the body of the string.The current token is a word when the value of the
ttype
field isTT_WORD
. The current token is a quoted string token when the value of thettype
field is a quote character.- See Also:
-
nval
public double nvalIf the current token is a number, this field contains the value of that number. The current token is a number when the value of thettype
field isTT_NUMBER
.- See Also:
-
TT_EOF
public static final int TT_EOFA constant indicating that the end of the file has been read.- See Also:

TT_EOL
public static final int TT_EOLA constant indicating that the end of the line has been read.- See Also:
-
TT_NUMBER
public static final int TT_NUMBERA constant indicating that a number token has been read.- See Also:

Method Details
-
close
Closes Reader.File is opened with InputStreamReader in constructor of this class.- Throws:
IOException
- if any.- See Also:
-
commentChar
public void commentChar(int ch) Specified that the character argument starts a single-line comment. All characters from the comment character to the end of the line are ignored by this stream tokenizer.- Parameters:
ch
- the character.
-
eolIsSignificant
public void eolIsSignificant(boolean flag) Determines whether or not ends of line are treated as tokens. If the flag argument is true, this tokenizer treats end of lines as tokens; thenextToken
method returnsTT_EOL
and also sets thettype
field to this value when an end of line is read.A line is a sequence of characters ending with either a carriage-return character (
'\r'
) or a newline character ('\n'
). In addition, a carriage-return character followed immediately by a newline character is treated as a single end-of-line token.If the
flag
is false, end-of-line characters are treated as white space and serve only to separate tokens.- Parameters:
flag
-true
indicates that end-of-line characters are separate tokens;false
indicates that end-of-line characters are white space.- See Also:
-
getURL
Returns URL.- Returns:
- java.net.URL
-
lineno
public int lineno()Return the current line number.- Returns:
- the current line number of this stream tokenizer.
-
lowerCaseMode
public void lowerCaseMode(boolean fl) Determines whether or not word token are automatically lowercased. If the flag argument istrue
, then the value in thesval
field is lowercased whenever a word token is returned (thettype
field has the valueTT_WORD
by thenextToken
method of this tokenizer.If the flag argument is
false
, then thesval
field is not modified.- Parameters:
fl
-true
indicates that all word tokens should be lowercased.- See Also:
-
nextToken
Parses the next token from the input stream of this tokenizer. The type of the next token is returned in thettype
field. Additional information about the token may be in thenval
field or thesval
field of this tokenizer.- Returns:
- a int
- Throws:
IOException
- if any.
-
ordinaryChar
public void ordinaryChar(int ch) Specifies that the character argument is "ordinary" in this tokenizer. It removes any special significance the character has as a comment character, word component, string delimiter, white space, or number character. When such a character is encountered by the parser, the parser treates it as a single-character token and setsttype
field to the character value.- Parameters:
ch
- the character.- See Also:
-
parseNumbers
public void parseNumbers()Specifies that numbers should be parsed by this tokenizer. The syntax table of this tokenizer is modified so that each of the twelve characters:0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 . -
has the "numeric" attribute.
When the parser encounters a word token that has the format of a double precision floating-point number, it treats the token as a number rather than a word, by setting the the
ttype
field to the valueTT_NUMBER
and putting the numeric value of the token into thenval
field.- See Also:
-
pushBack
public void pushBack()Causes the next call to thenextToken
method of this tokenizer to return the current value in thettype
field, and not to modify the value in thenval
orsval
field.- See Also:
-
quoteChar
public void quoteChar(int ch) Specifies that matching pairs of this character delimit string constants in this tokenizer.When the
nextToken
method encounters a string constant, thettype
field is set to the string delimiter and thesval
field is set to the body of the string.If a string quote character is encountered, then a string is recognized, consisting of all characters after (but not including) the string quote character, up to (but not including) the next occurrence of that same string quote character, or a line terminator, or end of file. The usual escape sequences such as
"\n"
and"\t"
are recognized and converted to single characters as the string is parsed.- Parameters:
ch
- the character.- See Also:
-
setURL
Sets URL to new value.- Parameters:
u
- java.net.URL
-
skipLine
Moves reading position to end of current line. ttype field becomes TT_EOL. Next call to nextToken() will return first token in next line.- Throws:
IOException
- if any.ParseException
- if any.
-
slashSlashComments
public void slashSlashComments(boolean flag) Determines whether or not the tokenizer recognizes C++-style comments. If the flag argument istrue
, this stream tokenizer recognizes C++-style comments. Any occurrence of two consecutive slash characters ('/'
) is treated as the beginning of a comment that extends to the end of the line.If the flag argument is
false
, then C++-style comments are not treated specially.- Parameters:
flag
-true
indicates to recognize and ignore C++-style comments.
-
slashStarComments
public void slashStarComments(boolean flag) Determines whether or not the tokenizer recognizes C-style comments. If the flag argument istrue
, this stream tokenizer recognizes C-style comments. All text between successive occurrences of/*
and*/
are discarded.If the flag argument is
false
, then C-style comments are not treated specially.- Parameters:
flag
-true
indicates to recognize and ignore C-style comments.
-
toString
Returnes information about unknown source from where FileTokenizer should read. -
whitespaceChars
public void whitespaceChars(int low, int hi) Specifies that all characters c in the rangelow <= c <= high
are white space characters. White space characters serve only to separate tokens in the input stream.- Parameters:
low
- the low end of the range.hi
- the high end of the range.
-
wordChars
public void wordChars(int low, int hi) Specifies that all characters c in the rangelow <= c <= high
are word constituents. A word token consists of a word constituent followed by zero or more word constituents or number constituents.- Parameters:
low
- the low end of the range.hi
- the high end of the range.
