Class SExpParser

java.lang.Object
  edu.rice.cs.util.sexp.SExpParser

public class SExpParser
extends Object

This parser is not meant to be instantiated. It has static methods that do all the work for you. These parse methods take in the data that is to be parsed and simply returns an s-expression abstract syntax.

Nested Class Summary

private static class	SExpParser.ParseHelper A new helper is instantiated for each time the user wants to parse data.
private static class	SExpParser.PrivateParseException This runtime exception makes it easier to write the parser since the methods of the helper class won't need to constantly declare the SExpParseException to be thrown.
