Libraries.Language.Compile.Parsing.QuorumLexer

This is a default class named Main. It has one action, also named Main, that starts the program.

Example Code

use Libraries.System.File
    use Libraries.Language.Interpreter.QuorumLexer
    use Libraries.Language.Compile.CompilerErrorManager

    QuorumLexer lexer
    File file
    file:SetPath("file.quorum")

    CompilerErrorManager errors
    lexer:SetCompilerErrorManager(errors)
    lexer:Read(file)

This action compares two object hash codes and returns an integer. The result is larger if this hash code is larger than the object passed as a parameter, smaller, or equal. In this case, -1 means smaller, 0 means equal, and 1 means larger. This action was changed in Quorum 7 to return an integer, instead of a CompareResult object, because the previous implementation was causing efficiency issues.

Example Code

Object o
        Object t
        integer result = o:Compare(t) //1 (larger), 0 (equal), or -1 (smaller)

This action empties the list of tokens.

This action determines if two objects are equal based on their hash code values.

Example Code

use Libraries.Language.Object
        use Libraries.Language.Types.Text
        Object o
        Text t
        boolean result = o:Equals(t)

This action is used to read a text file and converts it into a token strea.

Example Code

use Libraries.System.File
    use Libraries.Language.Interpreter.QuorumLexer
    use Libraries.Language.Compile.CompilerErrorManager

    QuorumLexer lexer
    File file
    file:SetPath("file.quorum")

    CompilerErrorManager errors
    lexer:SetCompilerErrorManager(errors)
    lexer:Read(file)

This action gets the hash code for an object.

Example Code

Object o
        integer hash = o:GetHashCode()

This action returns an iterator over the tokens. We can use this to automatically iterate over non-documentation tokens, to do lookahead and look back, and other operations that are harder to manage through the raw Get action.

This action returns the number of tokens in the token stream.

This method returns a token at a particular position in the lex.

This action Returns whether or not there are tokens in the token stream

This action is used to read a text file and converts it into a token strea.

Example Code

use Libraries.System.File
    use Libraries.Language.Interpreter.QuorumLexer
    use Libraries.Language.Compile.CompilerErrorManager

    QuorumLexer lexer
    File file
    file:SetPath("file.quorum")

    CompilerErrorManager errors
    lexer:SetCompilerErrorManager(errors)
    lexer:Read(file)

This action is used to read a text value and converts it into a token stream.

Example Code

use Libraries.System.File
    use Libraries.Language.Interpreter.QuorumLexer
    use Libraries.Language.Compile.CompilerErrorManager

    QuorumLexer lexer
    File file
    file:SetPath("file.quorum")

    CompilerErrorManager errors
    lexer:SetCompilerErrorManager(errors)
    lexer:Read(file:Read())
