Interface Action<V>

All Known Subinterfaces:

SkippableAction<V>

All Known Implementing Classes:

BaseAction

public interface Action<V>

Instances of classes implementing this interface can be used directly in a rule definition to define a parser action. If the class also implements the ContextAware interface it will be used to inform the object of the current parsing Context immediately before the invocation of the run(org.parboiled.Context<V>) method. Additionally, if the class implementing this interface is an inner class (anonymous or not) and its outer class(es) implement(s) ContextAware its outer class(es) will also be informed object of the current parsing Context immediately before the invocation of the actions run(org.parboiled.Context<V>) method. This allows simple anonymous action class implementations directly in the parser rule definitions, even when they access context-sensitive methods defined in the BaseActions or BaseParser classes.
