Class XMLTokenMaker

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    TokenMaker

    public class XMLTokenMaker
    extends AbstractMarkupTokenMaker
    Scanner for XML. This implementation was created using JFlex 1.4.1; however, the generated file was modified for performance. Memory allocation needs to be almost completely removed to be competitive with the handwritten lexers (subclasses of AbstractTokenMaker, so this class has been modified so that Strings are never allocated (via yytext()), and the scanner never has to worry about refilling its buffer (needlessly copying chars around). We can achieve this because RText always scans exactly 1 line of tokens at a time, and hands the scanner this line as an array of characters (a Segment really). Since tokens contain pointers to char arrays instead of Strings holding their contents, there is no need for allocating new memory for Strings.

    The actual algorithm generated for scanning has, of course, not been modified.

    If you wish to regenerate this file yourself, keep in mind the following:

    • The generated XMLTokenMaker.java file will contain two definitions of both zzRefill and yyreset. You should hand-delete the second of each definition (the ones generated by the lexer), as these generated methods modify the input buffer, which we'll never have to do.
    • You should also change the declaration/definition of zzBuffer to NOT be initialized. This is a needless memory allocation for us since we will be pointing the array somewhere else anyway.
    • You should NOT call yylex() on the generated scanner directly; rather, you should use getTokenList as you would with any other TokenMaker instance.

    • Constructor Detail

      • XMLTokenMaker

        public XMLTokenMaker()

        Creates a new scanner There is also a java.io.InputStream version of this constructor.

        in - the java.io.Reader to read input from.
      • XMLTokenMaker

        public XMLTokenMaker​(InputStream in)
        Creates a new scanner. There is also java.io.Reader version of this constructor.

        Adds the token specified to the current linked list of tokens.
        Specified by:
        addToken in interface TokenMaker
        Overrides:
        addToken in class TokenMakerBase
        Parameters:
        array - The character array.
        start - The starting offset in the array.
        end - The ending offset in the array.
        tokenType - The token's type.
        startOffset - The offset in the document at which this token occurs.
      • createOccurrenceMarker

        protected OccurrenceMarker createOccurrenceMarker()
        Returns the occurrence marker to use for this token maker. Subclasses can override to use different implementations.
        Overrides:
        createOccurrenceMarker in class TokenMakerBase
        Returns:
        The occurrence marker to use.
      • getCompleteCloseMarkupTags

        public static boolean getCompleteCloseMarkupTags()
        Static version of getCompleteCloseTags(). This hack is unfortunately needed for applications to be able to query this value without instantiating this class.
        Returns:
        Whether closing markup tags are completed.
        See Also:
        setCompleteCloseTags(boolean)
