Detailed Description

Base class for all tokens.

It provides an interface for all tokens and storage for string representation (all tokens evaluate to string).

This class represents a single token. Examples of a token are:

"foo" (a constant string)
option[123].text (a token that extracts textual value of option 123)
== (an operator that compares two other tokens)
substring(a,b,c) (an operator that takes three arguments: a string, first character and length)

◆ evaluate()

virtual unsigned isc::dhcp::Token::evaluate	(	Pkt &	pkt,
		ValueStack &	values )

pure virtual

This is a generic method for evaluating a packet.

We need to pass the packet being evaluated and possibly previously evaluated values. Specific implementations may ignore the packet altogether and just put their own value on the stack (constant tokens), look at the packet and put some data extracted from it on the stack (option tokens), or pop arguments from the stack and put back the result (operators).

The parameters passed will be:

Parameters

pkt	- packet being classified
values	- stack of values with previously evaluated tokens

Returns: next label or 0 when means evaluate next token if any.

◆ getLabel()

virtual unsigned isc::dhcp::Token::getLabel ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Return the label of this token.

Returns: the label for a TokenLabel, 0 otherwise.

Reimplemented in isc::dhcp::TokenLabel.

Definition at line 94 of file token.h.

◆ toBool()

static bool isc::dhcp::Token::toBool ( std::string value )

inlinestatic

Coverts a (string) value to a boolean.

Only "true" and "false" are expected.

Parameters

value the (string) value

Returns: the boolean represented by the value

Exceptions

EvalTypeError when the value is not either "true" or "false".
