TParser.TokenString function

Member of TParserpublicIn unit Classes

Returns the current token as a string.

Declaration

pascal
function TokenString: string

Description

If current token type is toString or toWString, this method returns the contents of the string. That is, enclosing quotes are removed, embedded quotes are unescaped and control strings are converted to the appropriate sequence of characters.

If current token type isn't a string, a string containing the token representation in the input stream is returned, without any conversion: hexadecimal integers are returned with the leading $, and floating point suffixes like s, c or d are kept. For tokens whose type isn't a special type, return value of TokenString equals Token.

If Token is toWString, TokenWideString should be used instead.

Errors

None.
