Class StringTokenizer

This class allows an application to break a string into tokens. The stringTokenizer methods do not distinguish among identifiers, numbers, and quoted strings, nor do they recognize and skip comments. The set of delimters mey be specified either at creation time or on a per-token basis. The instance behaves in two ways depending on the flag (true or false) during object creation:

• If the flag is set to false, the delimiter characters serve to separate tokens. A token is a maximal sequence of consecutive characters that are not delimiters.
• If the flag is set to true, the delimiter characters are themselves considered to be tokens. A token is thus either one delimiter character, or a maximal sequence of consecutive characters that are not delimiters.
