Method Detail

getToken

int getToken(AbcLexer lexer)

This function is called when the keyword that is associated with this action is encountered in the lexer. In order to be useful, it should probably make use of some of Lexer_c's public members to produce the necessary side-effects.

Parameters:

lexer - The lexer object that the action should apply to. It is used for the calls that produce side-effects.

Returns:

The token that should be passed on to the parser, as defined in aspectj.ppg or similar files from extensions to abc.
