__init__(self, identifier)

get_identifier(self)

add_match_candidates(self, token_position, match_candidates_found)
Store a MatchCandidate along with it's token position.

get_components_found(self)

add_dynamic_property_position(self, component, position_before_dynamic_value)
The component and character position are stored in a map with the component as the key as it will later be accessed.

Method Details

add_match_candidates(self, token_position, match_candidates_found)

Store a MatchCandidate along with it's token position. The token position is used by the lookaround constraints.

:param component: :param position_before_dynamic_value: :return:

add_dynamic_property_position(self, component, position_before_dynamic_value)

The component and character position are stored in a map with the component as the key as it will later be accessed.

If the same token appears multiple times in an Identifier then only the last position will be stored with it. It may appear sensible to store all positions for a component to avoid losing the first position but it is more efficient to only store one position and to use rule constraints to prevent more than one of the same component being added.
