All Implemented Interfaces:

TokenMaker

public class LuaTokenMaker
extends AbstractJFlexTokenMaker
implements TokenMaker

Scanner for the Lua programming language.

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 LuaTokenMaker.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.

Parameters:

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

LuaTokenMaker

            int tokenType,
            int startOffset)

Adds the token specified to the current linked list of tokens.

Specified by:

addToken in interface TokenMaker

Parameters:

array - The character array.

Specified by:

getLineCommentStartAndEnd in interface TokenMaker

Returns:

The start and end strings to add to a line to "comment" it out.

getTokenList

public Token getTokenList(Segment text,
                 int initialTokenType,
                 int startOffset)

Returns the first token in the linked list of tokens generated from text. This method must be implemented by subclasses so they can correctly implement syntax highlighting.

Specified by:

getTokenList in interface TokenMaker

Parameters:

text - The text from which to get tokens.

initialTokenType - The token type we should start with.

startOffset - The offset into the document at which text starts.

Returns:

The first Token in a linked list representing the syntax highlighted text.

yyreset

public final void yyreset(Reader reader)
                   throws IOException

Resets the scanner to read from a new input stream. Does not close the old reader. All internal variables are reset, the old input stream cannot be reused (internal buffer is discarded and lost). Lexical state is set to YY_INITIAL.

Parameters:

reader - the new input stream

Throws:

IOException

yyclose

public final void yyclose()
                   throws IOException

Closes the input stream.

Throws:

IOException

yystate

public final int yystate()

Returns the current lexical state.

yybegin

public final void yybegin(int newState)

Enters a new lexical state

Parameters:

newState - the new lexical state

yytext

public final String yytext()

Returns the text matched by the current regular expression.

yycharat

public final char yycharat(int pos)

Returns the character at position pos from the matched text. It is equivalent to yytext().charAt(pos), but faster

Parameters:

pos - the position of the character to fetch. A value from 0 to yylength()-1.

Returns:

the character at position pos

yylength

public final int yylength()

Returns the length of the matched text region.

yypushback

public void yypushback(int number)

Pushes the specified amount of characters back into the input stream. They will be read again by then next call of the scanning method

Parameters:

number - the number of characters to be read again. This number must not be greater than yylength()!

yylex

public Token yylex()
            throws IOException

Resumes scanning until the next regular expression is matched, the end of input is encountered or an I/O-Error occurs.

Returns:

the next token

Throws:

IOException - if any I/O-Error occurs

addNullToken

public void addNullToken()

Adds a null token to the end of the current linked list of tokens. This should be put at the end of the linked list whenever the last token on the current line is NOT a multiline token.

Specified by:

addNullToken in interface TokenMaker

addToken

public void addToken(Segment segment,
            int start,
            int end,
            int tokenType,
            int startOffset)

Adds the token specified to the current linked list of tokens.

Parameters:

segment - Segment to get text from.

start - Start offset in segment of token.

end - End offset in segment of token.

tokenType - The token's type.

startOffset - The offset in the document at which this token occurs.

addToken

public void addToken(char[] array,
            int start,
            int end,
            int tokenType,
            int startOffset,
            boolean hyperlink)

Adds the token specified to the current linked list of tokens.

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.

hyperlink - Whether this token is a hyperlink.

getCurlyBracesDenoteCodeBlocks

public boolean getCurlyBracesDenoteCodeBlocks()

Returns whether this programming language uses curly braces ('{' and '}') to denote code blocks.

The default implementation returns false; subclasses can override this method if necessary.

Specified by:

getCurlyBracesDenoteCodeBlocks in interface TokenMaker

Returns:

Whether curly braces denote code blocks.

getLastTokenTypeOnLine

public int getLastTokenTypeOnLine(Segment text,
                         int initialTokenType)

Returns the last token on this line's type if the token is "unfinished", or Token.NULL if it was finished. For example, if C-style syntax highlighting is being implemented, and text contained a line of code that contained the beginning of a comment but no end-comment marker ("*\/"), then this method would return Token.COMMENT_MULTILINE for that line. This is useful for doing syntax highlighting.

Specified by:

getLastTokenTypeOnLine in interface TokenMaker

Parameters:

text - The line of tokens to examine.

initialTokenType - The token type to start with (i.e., the value of getLastTokenTypeOnLine for the line before text).

Returns:

The last token on this line's type, or Token.NULL if the line was completed.

getMarkOccurrencesOfTokenType

public boolean getMarkOccurrencesOfTokenType(int type)

Returns whether tokens of the specified type should have "mark occurrences" enabled for the current programming language. The default implementation returns true if type is Token.IDENTIFIER. Subclasses can override this method to support other token types, such as Token.VARIABLE.

Specified by:

getMarkOccurrencesOfTokenType in interface TokenMaker

Parameters:

type - The token type.

Returns:

Whether tokens of this type should have "mark occurrences" enabled.

getShouldIndentNextLineAfter

public boolean getShouldIndentNextLineAfter(Token token)

The default implementation returns false always. Languages that wish to better support auto-indentation can override this method.

Specified by:

getShouldIndentNextLineAfter in interface TokenMaker

Parameters:

token - The token the previous line ends with.

Returns:

Whether the next line should be indented.

resetTokenList

protected void resetTokenList()

Deletes the linked list of tokens so we can begin anew. This should never have to be called by the programmer, as it is automatically called whenever the user calls getLastTokenTypeOnLine or getTokenList.

setWhitespaceVisible

public void setWhitespaceVisible(boolean visible,
                        RSyntaxTextArea textArea)

Sets whether tokens are generated that "show" whitespace.

Specified by:

setWhitespaceVisible in interface TokenMaker

Parameters:

visible - Whether whitespace should be visible.
