## Class TokenStream.BasicTokenizer

- java.lang.Object
- - org.modeshape.common.text.TokenStream.BasicTokenizer

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    TokenStream.Tokenizer
  Enclosing class:
    TokenStream

      public static class TokenStream.BasicTokenizer
      extends Object
      implements TokenStream.Tokenizer

  A basic `TokenStream.Tokenizer` implementation that ignores whitespace but includes tokens for individual symbols, the period ('.'), single-quoted strings, double-quoted strings, whitespace-delimited words, and optionally comments.

  Note this Tokenizer may not be appropriate in many situations, but is provided merely as a convenience for those situations that happen to be able to use it.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### tokenize

          public void tokenize(TokenStream.CharacterStream input,
                      TokenStream.Tokens tokens)
                        throws ParsingException

      Description copied from interface: `TokenStream.Tokenizer`
      Process the supplied characters and construct the appropriate `TokenStream.Token` objects.
      Specified by:
        `tokenize` in interface `TokenStream.Tokenizer`
      Parameters:
        `input` - the character input stream; never null
        `tokens` - the factory for `TokenStream.Token` objects, which records the order in which the tokens are created
      Throws:
        `ParsingException` - if there is an error while processing the character stream (e.g., a quote is not closed, etc.)
