Direct Known Subclasses:

public abstract class AbstractParser
extends Object

Abstract class for all translators parsers Parsers are classes used to search for special parts of text (usually html tags) and then to produce AbstractNodes from them. AbstractParser keep information about regular expression that should be used to search for these special parts of text and contain mechanism how to create node from them.

AbstractParser

public AbstractParser()

AbstractParser

public AbstractParser(String name,
                      String start,
                      String end)

Constructor for AbstractParser

Parameters:

name - parser name

start - regular expression that would be used to find beginning of text from which node has to be created

end - regular expression that would be used to find end of text from which node has to be created

Method Detail

getEnd

public String getEnd()

Returns:

the end

setEnd

public void setEnd(String end)

Returns:

the name

setName

public void setName(String name)

Parameters:

name - the name to set

getStartExpression

public abstract String getStartExpression()

Returns:

regular expression that would be used to search for beginning of text from which node would be created

getStartEndExpression

public abstract String getStartEndExpression()

Returns:

regular expression that would be used to check if beginning of text is not also the finishing one ( like br html tag which have no separate closing tag)

getEndExpression

public abstract String getEndExpression(String start)

Returns:

regular expression that would be used to search for closing tag for a given start expression.

createNode

public abstract AbstractNode createNode(String start,
                                        String end,
                                        String text,

Create AbstractNode instance from a given text

Parameters:

start - is a String that was found when searching for a start of text that should be used to create node

end - is a String that was found when searching for a end of text that should be used to create node

text - text is whole text that was between start and end Strings

translator - reference to Translator that would be used to search for sub tags in given text

Returns:

node that was created from the given text (can be with subnodes if any was found in text)
