public class Namespace
extends AbstractAssignment
implements Theable, ExpandableCode

This class provides an implementation for the primitive \namespace.

The Primitive \namespace

The primitive \namespace witches the name space. For this purpose it takes one parameter which is a group. The contents is expanded and should result in a list of characters. Those characters are taken as the name of the new name space to switch to.

The name space corresponding to the empty list of characters is the default name space.

Syntax

The formal description of this primitive is the following:
    ⟨namespace⟩
      → \namespace ⟨replacement text⟩  

Examples

    \namespace{org.dante.dtk}

public Namespace(CodeToken token)
Creates a new object.

Parameters:
token - the initial token for the primitive
Method Detail

assign

public void assign(Flags prefix,
                   Context context,
                   TokenSource source,
                   Typesetter typesetter)
            throws HelpingException,
                   TypesetterException
The method assign is the core of the functionality of execute(). This method is preferable to execute() since the execute() method provided in this class takes care of \afterassignment and \globaldefs as well.

Specified by:
assign in class AbstractAssignment
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
See Also:
AbstractAssignment.assign( org.extex.interpreter.Flags, org.extex.interpreter.context.Context, org.extex.interpreter.TokenSource, org.extex.typesetter.Typesetter)

expand

public void expand(Flags prefix,
                   Context context,
                   TokenSource source,
                   Typesetter typesetter)
            throws 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:
HelpingException - in case of an error

ExpandableCode.expand( org.extex.interpreter.Flags, org.extex.interpreter.context.Context, org.extex.interpreter.TokenSource, org.extex.typesetter.Typesetter)

the

public Tokens the(Context context,
                  TokenSource source,
                  Typesetter typesetter)
           throws CatcodeException,
                  HelpingException,
                  TypesetterException
This method is the getter for the description of the primitive.

Specified by:
the in interface Theable
Parameters:
context - the interpreter context
source - the source for further tokens to qualify the request
typesetter - the typesetter to use
Returns:
the description of the primitive as list of Tokens
Throws:
CatcodeException - in case of an error in token creation
ConfigurationException - in case of an configuration error
HelpingException - in case of an error
TypesetterException - in case of an error
