  • Constructor Details

    • SingleLineRule

      public SingleLineRule(String startSequence, String endSequence, IToken token)
      Creates a rule for the given starting and ending sequence which, if detected, will return the specified token.
      Parameters:
      startSequence - the pattern's start sequence
      endSequence - the pattern's end sequence
      token - the token to be returned on success
    • SingleLineRule

      public SingleLineRule(String startSequence, String endSequence, IToken token, char escapeCharacter)
      Creates a rule for the given starting and ending sequence which, if detected, will return the specified token. Any character which follows the given escape character will be ignored.
      Parameters:
      startSequence - the pattern's start sequence
      endSequence - the pattern's end sequence
      token - the token to be returned on success
      escapeCharacter - the escape character
    • SingleLineRule

      public SingleLineRule(String startSequence, String endSequence, IToken token, char escapeCharacter, boolean breaksOnEOF)
      Creates a rule for the given starting and ending sequence which, if detected, will return the specified token. Alternatively, the line can also be ended with the end of the file. Any character which follows the given escape character will be ignored.
      Parameters:
      startSequence - the pattern's start sequence
      endSequence - the pattern's end sequence
      token - the token to be returned on success
      escapeCharacter - the escape character
      breaksOnEOF - indicates whether the end of the file successfully terminates this rule

    • SingleLineRule

      public SingleLineRule(String startSequence, String endSequence, IToken token, char escapeCharacter, boolean breaksOnEOF, boolean escapeContinuesLine)
      Creates a rule for the given starting and ending sequence which, if detected, will return the specified token. Alternatively, the line can also be ended with the end of the file. Any character which follows the given escape character will be ignored. In addition, an escape character immediately before an end of line can be set to continue the line.
      Parameters:
      startSequence - the pattern's start sequence
      endSequence - the pattern's end sequence
      token - the token to be returned on success
      escapeCharacter - the escape character
      breaksOnEOF - indicates whether the end of the file successfully terminates this rule
      escapeContinuesLine - indicates whether the specified escape character is used for line continuation, so that an end of line immediately after the escape character does not terminate the line, even if breakOnEOL is true
