+to Lexical Analysis</title><shortdesc>A <codeph>TLex</codeph> object is used to perform lexical analysis. </shortdesc><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>
+<p>The class is used to:</p>
+<ul>
+<li id="GUID-4D79DE44-4E35-56C3-B6ED-5A82CD015FE9"><p>store a string</p> </li>
+<li id="GUID-537012CB-CFCC-55C3-82DE-1D9B18539BEC"><p>maintain an extraction
+mark to indicate the current lexical element being analysed</p> </li>
+<li id="GUID-7B398A9C-42F1-5ABE-80ED-4237F72806BD"><p>maintain a pointer to
+indicate the next character to be examined.</p> </li>
+</ul>
+<p>Member functions provide facilities to allow analysis and extraction of
+lexical elements from a <codeph>TLex</codeph> object, and a variety of string-to-number
+conversions.</p>
+<p>The <codeph>TLex</codeph> class provides general-purpose lexical analysis
+functions, using the locale-dependent functions of <codeph>TChar</codeph> to
+identify whether characters are digits, letters etc. The data for these locale-dependent
+functions is held in kernel-side locale tables. Thus, <codeph>TLex</codeph> functions
+which use them, require an executive call. If an application requires very
+fast lexical analysis of a language which is not locale-specific, then there
+may be some advantage in designing and implementing a special-purpose lexical
+analyzer class.</p>
