public class Input
extends AbstractFileCode
implements ExpandableCode

This class provides an implementation for the primitive \input. It uses the standard encoding (see token register \fileencoding and extex.encoding.

The Primitive \input

The primitive \input takes as argument one file name and opens this file for reading. The following tokens are taken from this input stream. Thus the effect is as if the file contents where copied at the place of the primitive.

If the file can not be opened for reading then an error is raised.

The primitive also makes provisions that the information in \inputfilename and \inputlineno are set properly.

Syntax

The formal description of this primitive is the following:
    ⟨input⟩
       → \input ⟨file name⟩ 

Examples

The traditional version of the file name parsing allows the following syntax:

    \input file.name  
If the parsing is not configured to be strict then the following syntax is allowed as well:
    \input{file.name}

public Input(CodeToken token)
Creates a new object.

Parameters:
token - the initial token for the primitive
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,
                   TypesetterException
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
TypesetterException - in case of an error in the typesetter
