String stream

String operation

Opens in-memory string output stream with initialSize (integer) of its buffer. You should use string streams when you plan to update certain string frequently or compose string from many components. String streams are also known as StringBuffer/StringBuilder in Java or .NET. To get current content of the string stream, use its method toString.

";
var stream = Stream.openString(source);
var scanner = new XMLScanner( stream );
var token = "";
while (token = scanner.token()) {
    switch(token) {
          case XMLScanner.HEAD_END:       //do some code
                                          continue;
          case XMLScanner.EOF:            return;
          case XMLScanner.ERROR:          console << "XML error at line " + scanner.lineNo << "\n";
          case XMLScanner.HEAD:           //do some code
                                          break;
          default:                        continue;
      }
