Interface KeywordRecognizer

  • All Known Implementing Classes:
    BasicKeywordRecognizer
    public interface KeywordRecognizer
    Implementing class should recognize a string as a keyword or should tell that the string is not a keyword. This helps the syntax analyzers that are used for languages that have reserved words to identify the keywords on the lexical analysis level.
