Class LetCode

java.lang.Object
  org.extex.interpreter.type.AbstractCode
      org.extex.unit.base.macro.LetCode

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, Code, ExpandableCode

public class LetCode
extends AbstractCode
implements ExpandableCode

This code encapsulated a token which is used to trigger an expansion in the interpreter at execution time. This can be used to access the code pieces for special tokens which are not stored in the context.

Constructor Summary

LetCode(Token token)
Creates a new object.

Method Summary

void	execute(Flags prefix, Context context, TokenSource source, Typesetter typesetter) This method takes the first token and executes it. The result is placed on the stack. This operation might have side effects. To execute a token it might be necessary to consume further tokens.
void	expand(Flags prefix, Context context, TokenSource source, Typesetter typesetter) This method takes the first token and expands it.
Token	getLetToken() Getter for token.

Constructor Detail

LetCode

public LetCode(Token token)

Creates a new object.

Parameters:

token - the token which encapsulated

Method Detail

execute

public void execute(Flags prefix,
                    Context context,
                    TokenSource source,
                    Typesetter typesetter)
             throws HelpingException,
                    TypesetterException

This method takes the first token and executes it. The result is placed on the stack. This operation might have side effects. To execute a token it might be necessary to consume further tokens.

Specified by:

execute in interface Code

Overrides:

execute in class AbstractCode

Parameters:

prefix - the prefix controlling the execution

context - the interpreter context

source - the token source

typesetter - the typesetter

Throws:

HelpingException - in case of an error

TypesetterException - in case of an error in the typesetter

expand

public void expand(Flags prefix,
                   Context context,
                   TokenSource source,
                   Typesetter typesetter)
            throws ConfigurationException,
                   HelpingException

This method takes the first token and expands it. The result is placed on the stack. This means that expandable code does one step of expansion and puts the result on the stack. To expand a token it might be necessary to consume further tokens.

Specified by:

expand in interface ExpandableCode

Parameters:

prefix - the prefix flags controlling the expansion

context - the interpreter context

source - the token source

typesetter - the typesetter

Throws:

ConfigurationException - in case of an configuration error

HelpingException - in case of an error

getLetToken

public Token getLetToken()

Getter for token.

Returns:

the token
