    • Method Detail

      • consume

        void consume()
        Consumes the current symbol in the stream. This method has the following effects:
        • Forward movement: The value of index() before calling this method is less than the value of index() after calling this method.
        • Ordered lookahead: The value of LA(1) before calling this method becomes the value of LA(-1) after calling this method.
        Note that calling this method does not guarantee that index() is incremented by exactly 1, as that would preclude the ability to implement filtering streams (e.g. CommonTokenStream which distinguishes between "on-channel" and "off-channel" tokens).
        Throws:
        IllegalStateException - if an attempt is made to consume the end of the stream (i.e. if LA(1)==EOF before calling consume).

      • LA

        int LA​(int i)
        Gets the value of the symbol at offset i from the current position. When i==1, this method returns the value of the current symbol in the stream (which is the next symbol to be consumed). When i==-1, this method returns the value of the previously read symbol in the stream. It is not valid to call this method with i==0, but the specific behavior is unspecified because this method is frequently called from performance-critical code.

        This method is guaranteed to succeed if any of the following are true:

        • i>0
        • i==-1 and index() returns a value greater than the value of index() after the stream was constructed and LA(1) was called in that order. Specifying the current index() relative to the index after the stream was created allows for filtering implementations that do not return every symbol from the underlying source. Specifying the call to LA(1) allows for lazily initialized streams.
        • LA(i) refers to a symbol consumed within a marked region that has not yet been released.

        If i represents a position at or beyond the end of the stream, this method returns EOF.

        The return value is unspecified if i<0 and fewer than -i calls to consume() have occurred from the beginning of the stream before calling this method.

        Throws:
        UnsupportedOperationException - if the stream does not support retrieving the value of the specified symbol

      • mark

        int mark()
        A mark provides a guarantee that seek() operations will be valid over a "marked range" extending from the index where mark() was called to the current index(). This allows the use of streaming input sources by specifying the minimum buffering requirements to support arbitrary lookahead during prediction.

        The returned mark is an opaque handle (type int) which is passed to release() when the guarantees provided by the marked range are no longer necessary. When calls to mark()/release() are nested, the marks must be released in reverse order of which they were obtained. Since marked regions are used during performance-critical sections of prediction, the specific behavior of invalid usage is unspecified (i.e. a mark is not released, or a mark is released twice, or marks are not released in reverse order from which they were created).

        The behavior of this method is unspecified if no call to an initializing method has occurred after this stream was constructed.

        This method does not change the current position in the input stream.

        The following example shows the use of mark(), release(mark), index(), and seek(index) as part of an operation to safely work within a marked region, then restore the stream position to its original value and release the mark.

         IntStream stream = ...;
 int index = -1;
 int mark = stream.mark();
 try {
   index = stream.index();
   // perform work here...
 } finally {
   if (index != -1) {
     stream.seek(index);
   }
   stream.release(mark);
 }
        Returns:
        An opaque marker which should be passed to release() when the marked range is no longer required.

      • release

        void release​(int marker)
        This method releases a marked range created by a call to mark(). Calls to release() must appear in the reverse order of the corresponding calls to mark(). If a mark is released twice, or if marks are not released in reverse order of the corresponding calls to mark(), the behavior is unspecified.

        For more information and an example, see mark().

        Parameters:
        marker - A marker returned by a call to mark().
        See Also:
        mark()

      • index

        int index()
        Return the index into the stream of the input symbol referred to by LA(1).

        The behavior of this method is unspecified if no call to an initializing method has occurred after this stream was constructed.

      • seek

        void seek​(int index)
        Set the input cursor to the position indicated by index. If the specified index lies past the end of the stream, the operation behaves as though index was the index of the EOF symbol. After this method returns without throwing an exception, then at least one of the following will be true.
        • index() will return the index of the first symbol appearing at or after the specified index. Specifically, implementations which filter their sources should automatically adjust index forward the minimum amount required for the operation to target a non-ignored symbol.
        • LA(1) returns EOF
        This operation is guaranteed to not throw an exception if index lies within a marked region. For more information on marked regions, see mark(). The behavior of this method is unspecified if no call to an initializing method has occurred after this stream was constructed.
        Parameters:
        index - The absolute index to seek to.
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if index is less than 0
        UnsupportedOperationException - if the stream does not support seeking to the specified index

      • size

        int size()
        Returns the total number of symbols in the stream, including a single EOF symbol.
        Throws:
        UnsupportedOperationException - if the size of the stream is unknown.

      • getSourceName

        String getSourceName()
        Gets the name of the underlying symbol source. This method returns a non-null, non-empty string. If such a name is not known, this method returns UNKNOWN_SOURCE_NAME.
