Icarus Class: Job

Describes a parsing job. Combines information about the syntax, the icarus program used for parsing, the token lists and status information about the input being parsed.

prod List   Associative list with the productions. skip     The set of characters to be skipped as white space. comment     Regular expression for skipping comments. str     Optional input string. fileName     Name of the file with the input to be parsed. file File     File to parse, must be opened for read access. abortOnError   y   y n   Whether parsing should abort on error or not. How parsing is continued is undefined at the moment lineN     No of current line in file input. noDoubleBckSlh     y n   Whether backslashes need to be escaped in regular expressions logFileName     Name of the log file. The file gets open by icarus when the job is created. It remains open until the job is deleted. logLevel   0   Logging level. See arguments of LogLevel function

	Implicit Methods on creation: initializes the syntax. on deletion: deletes the job.
hasInput	Returns TRUE if the input file of the job is not finished
jobEntry	JobEntry
reset	Resets all token tables of the previous parsing job, if any, and resets the parser to start a new one.
setFile	Sets specified file as input. If job is already associated with a file, it will be deleted and the job reset. name
task	Used for managing tasks that define forced parsing. Examines or modifies the state of a task. name   set on  on off
tinSlot	Selects a slot of a tin. name   Name of the tin. n
tinSlotN	Returns the number of slots of the tin. This evaluates the tin. name   Name of the tin.
tokens	Requests a token table from the parser which may invoke 'lazy parsing' and optionally prints all its tokens. name   Name of the token list. code   n   print 0  1 y withCode n 0 task   withCode 1  outFile File   Output file object. TokList
