Class PGtokenizer


  • public class PGtokenizer
    extends Object
    This class is used to tokenize the text output of org.postgres. It's mainly used by the geometric classes, but is useful in parsing any output from custom data types output from org.postgresql.

      • PGtokenizer

        public PGtokenizer​(String string,
                           char delim)

        Create a tokeniser.

        We could have used StringTokenizer to do this, however, we needed to handle nesting of '(' ')' '[' ']' '<' and '>' as these are used by the geometric data types.

        Parameters:
        string - containing tokens
        delim - single character to split the tokens
    • Method Detail

      • tokenize

        public int tokenize​(String string,
                            char delim)
        This resets this tokenizer with a new string and/or delimiter.
        Parameters:
        string - containing tokens
        delim - single character to split the tokens
        Returns:
        number of tokens
      • getSize

        public int getSize()
        Returns:
        the number of tokens available
      • getToken

        public String getToken​(int n)
        Parameters:
        n - Token number ( 0 ... getSize()-1 )
        Returns:
        The token value
      • tokenizeToken

        public PGtokenizer tokenizeToken​(int n,
                                         char delim)

        This returns a new tokenizer based on one of our tokens.

        The geometric datatypes use this to process nested tokens (usually PGpoint).

        Parameters:
        n - Token number ( 0 ... getSize()-1 )
        delim - The delimiter to use
        Returns:
        A new instance of PGtokenizer based on the token

        This removes the lead/trailing strings from a string.
        Parameters:
