Detailed Description

Lexer class, the purpose of which is to take raw source code as its input and produce a list of Tokens that correspond to it as its output.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Lexer()

linc::Lexer::Lexer ( const Code::Source & source_code, bool initialize_source )

explicit

Initialize a lexer object.

Parameters

source_code	The actual source code to be tokenized.
initialize_source	Whether to initialize the source code representation used for reporting errors. To be used for files that directly go through language analysis, i.e. not via include directives.

Member Function Documentation

appendIncludeDirectories()

void linc::Lexer::appendIncludeDirectories ( const std::vector< std::string > & new_directories ) const

inline

Append a list of custom directories to the include paths list.

Parameters

new_directories

The new paths to be appended.

isDigit()

static bool linc::Lexer::isDigit ( char c, Token::NumberBase base )

inlinestatic

Determine whether a character is a digit for a given number system base.

Returns

Boolean corresponding to the result of the test.

operator()()

auto linc::Lexer::operator()

(

)

const

Process the source code given to the lexer and output its tokenized form.

Returns

The list of tokens that correspond to the original source code.
