Field Detail

### CHARACTER

    static final SymbolTokenization.TokenType CHARACTER

### FIXEDWIDTH

    static final SymbolTokenization.TokenType FIXEDWIDTH

### SEPARATED

    static final SymbolTokenization.TokenType SEPARATED

### UNKNOWN

    static final SymbolTokenization.TokenType UNKNOWN

Method Detail

### getAlphabet

    Alphabet getAlphabet()

  The alphabet to which this tokenization applies.

### getTokenType

    SymbolTokenization.TokenType getTokenType()

  Determine the style of tokenization represented by this object.

### parseToken

    Symbol parseToken(String token)
                      throws IllegalSymbolException

  Returns the symbol for a single token.

  The Symbol will be a member of the alphabet. If the token is not recognized as mapping to a symbol, an exception will be thrown.

  Parameters:
    `token` - the token to retrieve a Symbol for
  Returns:
    the Symbol for that token
  Throws:
    `IllegalSymbolException` - if there is no Symbol for the token

### parseStream

    StreamParser parseStream(SeqIOListener listener)

  Return an object which can parse an arbitrary character stream into symbols.

  Parameters:
    `listener` - The listener which gets notified of parsed symbols.

### tokenizeSymbol

    String tokenizeSymbol(Symbol sym)
                          throws IllegalSymbolException

  Return a token representing a single symbol.

  Parameters:
    `sym` - The symbol
  Throws:
    `IllegalSymbolException` - if the symbol isn't recognized.

### tokenizeSymbolList

    String tokenizeSymbolList(SymbolList symList)
                              throws IllegalAlphabetException,
                                     IllegalSymbolException

  Return a string representation of a list of symbols.

  Parameters:
    `symList` - A SymbolList
  Throws:
    `IllegalAlphabetException` - if alphabets don't match
    `IllegalSymbolException`
