PHP StringScanner::skip Examples

skip() public method

If it matches, the scan pointer is advanced to the end of the match, and the length of the match is returned. Otherwise, +null+ is returned. It's similar to #scan, but without returning the matched string.

public skip ( string $pattern ) : integer
$pattern	string
return	integer	The new position

Example #1

File: StringScannerTest.php Project: hamlphp/hamlphp

 public function testSkipAndSkipUntil()
 {
     $s = new StringScanner('test string');
     $this->assertEquals(4, $s->skip('/\\w+/'));
     $this->assertNull($s->skip('/\\w+/'));
     $this->assertEquals(1, $s->skip('/\\s+/'));
     $this->assertEquals(6, $s->skip('/\\w+/'));
     $this->assertNull($s->skip('/./'));
     $s = new StringScanner("Fri Dec 12 1975 14:39");
     $this->assertEquals(10, $s->skipUntil('/12/'));
 }

Example #2

File: testStringScanner.php Project: sebcode/proust

 function testSkip()
 {
     $sc = new StringScanner("foobar blorg bla");
     $res = $sc->skip("hihi");
     $this->assertEqual($res, null);
     $this->assertEqual($sc->rest(), "foobar blorg bla");
     $res = $sc->skip("\\w+\\s+");
     $this->assertEqual($res, 7);
     $this->assertEqual($sc->rest(), "blorg bla");
