Method Detail

convertMathCode

MathCode convertMathCode(Context context,
                         TokenSource source,
                         Typesetter typesetter)
                         throws HelpingException,
                                TypesetterException

This method converts an implementing class into a MathCode. 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.

Parameters:: context - the interpreter context; source - the source for new tokens; typesetter - the typesetter to use for conversion
Returns:: the converted value
Throws:: HelpingException - in case of an error; TypesetterException - in case of an error in the typesetter
