public class Inputlineno
extends AbstractCode
implements CountConvertible, Theable

This class provides an implementation for the primitive \inputlineno.

The Primitive \inputlineno

The primitive \inputlineno is an internal integer quantity which expands to the line number of the current input file. This primitive can be used to assign the value to variables or after \the to translate it to tokens.

Syntax

The formal description of this primitive is the following:
    ⟨inputlineno⟩
      → \inputlineno  

Examples

    \count1=\inputlineno  
    \the\inputlineno

Method Detail

convertCount

public long convertCount(Context context,
                         TokenSource source,
                         Typesetter typesetter)
                  throws InterpreterException
Description copied from interface: CountConvertible
This method converts a register into a count. It might be necessary to read further tokens to determine which value to use. For instance an additional register number might be required. In this case the additional arguments Context and TokenSource can be used.

Specified by:
convertCount in interface CountConvertible
Parameters:
context - the interpreter context
source - the source for new tokens
typesetter - the typesetter to use for conversion
Returns:
the converted value
Throws:
InterpreterException - in case of an error

           throws InterpreterException
Description copied from interface: Theable
This method is the getter for the description of the primitive.

Specified by:
the in interface Theable
Parameters:
context - the interpreter context
source - the source for further tokens to qualify the request
typesetter - the typesetter to use
Returns:
the description of the primitive as list of Tokens
Throws:
InterpreterException - in case of an error
