Class jdsltools.testers.TesterStringParser

java.lang.Object
   |
   +----jdsltools.testers.TesterStringParser

parseMessage(String): Parses a string that contains a message.
parseParameters(String): Parses a string that contains a list of parameters for a call to execute.
parseTests(String): Parses a list of tests of the form n,m.

TesterStringParser

 public TesterStringParser()

Class constructor. If this constructor is used, the tester will not be able to parse $ commands.

TesterStringParser

 public TesterStringParser(GenericTester tester)

Class constructor.

 public TesterArrays parseParameters(String string) throws StringFormatException

Parses a string that contains a list of parameters for a call to execute. The following tokens are understood in the string:

$LOCATION the current location created from the most recent call to generate on the factory.
$LOCATION[n] where n is an integer. This is location n in the array of locations returned by the most recent call to generate.
$STRUCTURE the current structure created from the most recent call to generate on the factory.
$STRUCTURE[n] where n is an integer. This is structure
$RETURN the return value of the most recently executed execute command.
$PARAMETER[n] The corresponding parameter set by a call to setParameter. n in the array of structures returned by the most recent call to generate.
A string surrounded by quotes(") is considered to be java.lang.String, and the quoted literal is the data contained in that String.
All other tokens are assumed to be either class names (either fully qualified or refered to in an import call.), a base type (i.e. boolean or void). or a parameter to a function.
- In the case of a base type, the name of the base type should be followed by the value that base type should have. For example int 3 or float.
- If it is a class name, then it should be followed by a '(', and then a list of the parameters to pass into that constructor. Nested constructors are permitted in this manner. For example: java.util.Hashtable(int 3).

In all cases, the tokens should be separated by a comma. Please note that int 3 is considered one token.

Parameters:: string - The string to be parsed
Returns:: A TesterArrays that represents the string that was parsed.
Throws: StringFormatException: if there is an error in the format of the string.

 public String parseMessage(String message) throws StringFormatException

Parses a string that contains a message. The following tokens are understood in the string:

$METHOD - The method that was most recently called.
$STRUCTURE - The string name representing the container that was most recently created by the factory. This string is obtained by calling structName on the factory, and passing the number that was used to create the current container.
$STRUCTURE[n] - Similar to $STRUCTURE, except it should be used when the call to generate created multiple containers.
$LOCATION - The string name representing the location created during the most recent call to generate. This string is obtained by calling locName on the factory, and passing in the number of the container and location passed in.
$LOCATION[n] - Similar to $LOCATION, except it should be used when the call to generate created multiple containers.
$ANSWER - Returns what you were expecting the execute method to throw or return.
All other tokens are considered to be literals.

 public int[][] parseTests(String list) throws StringFormatException

Parses a list of tests of the form n,m. If a structure key was given, but no location key was given, then a -1 is put in place of that key.
