Input Method

Provides input to the reader.

Syntax

[VB.NET]
Public Sub Input(ByVal Text As String)

[C#]
public void Input(string text);

Remarks

The reader gets the text input via the Text parameter. The Text is sent to the reader's state machine and any available events are fired as a result of the parsing process.

The events are fired only when qualifying conditions (such as when a new segment is found) are met. In the meantime, text will be buffered internally.

Any buffered text will be flushed out to the ExtraData property when Reset is called.

Since the component can be used to parse IDoc data fragments, the internal buffer will not be cleared until Reset is called. So Reset must be called before loading a new document.

Example (Parse an IDoc File)

IDocReader.Input("idocdata")
