public class Odelcode
extends AbstractAssignment
implements CountConvertible, Advanceable, Divideable, Multiplyable, Theable

This class provides an implementation for the primitive \odelcode.

The Math Primitive \odelcode

The primitive \odelcode can be used to assign and query the delimiter code for a character. The delimiter code determines, how a character is typeset in math mode.

The TeX encoding interprets the number as 27 bit hex number: "csyylxx. Here the digits have the following meaning:

c
the math class of this delimiter. It has a range from 0 to 7.
l
the family for the large character. It has a range from 0 to 15.
xx
the character code of the large character.
s
the family for the small character. It has a range from 0 to 15.
yy
the character code of the small character.

The assigning a new value to a delimiter code acts in a group restricted way unless declared differently. If the prefix \global is given then the assignment is performed globally. The same effect can be achieved when the count register \globaldefs is greater than 0.

Syntax

The formal description of this primitive is the following:
    ⟨odelcode⟩
      → ⟨prefix⟩ \odelcode ⟨8-bit number⟩ ⟨equals⟩ ⟨8-bit number⟩

    ⟨prefix⟩
      →
       |  ⟨global⟩ 

Examples

    \odelcode`x="123456  
    \global\odelcode`x="123456  

Using as Count Register

The primitive \odelcode can be used like a count register. This means you can use it wherever a number is expected. In addition the value can be advanced, multiplied, and divided. In any case the delimiter code is translated according to the TeX encoding and processed as number.

Examples

    \count1=\odelcode`x  
    \advance\odelcode`x by 42

Odelcode

public Odelcode(java.lang.String name)
Creates a new object.

Parameters:
name - the name for debugging
Method Detail

advance

public void advance(Flags prefix,
                    Context context,
                    TokenSource source,
                    Typesetter typesetter)
             throws InterpreterException
Description copied from interface: Advanceable
This method is called when the macro \advance has been seen. It performs the remaining tasks for the expansion.

Specified by:
advance in interface Advanceable
Parameters:
prefix - the prefix for the command
context - the processor context
source - the token source to parse
typesetter - the typesetter
Throws:
InterpreterException - in case of an error
See Also:
Advanceable.advance( de.dante.extex.interpreter.Flags, de.dante.extex.interpreter.context.Context, de.dante.extex.interpreter.TokenSource, de.dante.extex.typesetter.Typesetter)

assign

public void assign(Flags prefix,
                   Context context,
                   TokenSource source,
                   Typesetter typesetter)
            throws InterpreterException
Description copied from class: AbstractAssignment
The method assign is the core of the functionality of execute(). This method is preferable to execute() since the execute() method provided in this class takes care of \afterassignment and \globaldefs as well.

Specified by:
assign in class AbstractAssignment
Parameters:
prefix - the prefix controlling the execution
context - the interpreter context
source - the token source
typesetter - the typesetter
Throws:
InterpreterException - in case of an error
See Also:
AbstractAssignment.assign( de.dante.extex.interpreter.Flags, de.dante.extex.interpreter.context.Context, de.dante.extex.interpreter.TokenSource, de.dante.extex.typesetter.Typesetter)

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
