The NItl4Rec Data Type

The tokens resource is defined by the NItl4Rec data type as follows:

TYPE  NItl4Rec = 
   RECORD
      flags:            Integer;    {reserved}
      resourceType:     LongInt;    {contains 'itl4'}
      resourceNum:      Integer;    {resource ID}
      version:          Integer;    {version number}
      format:           Integer;    {format code}
      resHeader:        Integer;    {reserved}
      resHeader2:       LongInt;    {reserved}
      numTables:        Integer;    {number of tables} 

      mapOffset:        LongInt;    {offset to token table}
      strOffset:        LongInt;    {offset to string-copy rtn.}
      fetchOffset:      LongInt;    {offset to ext. fetch routine}
      unTokenOffset:    LongInt;    {offset to untoken table}
      defPartsOffset:   LongInt;    {offset to number parts table}
      whtSpListOffset:  LongInt;    {offset to whitespace table}

      resOffset7:       LongInt;    {reserved}
      resOffset8:       LongInt;    {reserved}
      resLength1:       Integer;    {reserved}
      resLength2:       Integer;    {reserved}
      resLength3:       Integer;    {reserved}
      unTokenLength:    Integer;    {length of untoken table}
      defPartsLength:   Integer;    {length of number parts table}
      whtSpListLength:  Integer;    {length of whitespace table}
      resLength7:       Integer;    {reserved}
      resLength8:       Integer;    {reserved}

Field Description

flags

(reserved)

resourceType

'itl4' (the resource type of the tokens resource).

resourceNum

The resource ID number of this tokens resource.

version

The version number of this tokens resource.

format

The format code, a number that identifies the format of this tokens resource.

resHeader

(reserved)

resHeader2

(reserved)

numTables

The number of tables in this tokens resource.

mapOffset

The offset in bytes from the beginning of the resource to the token table, an array that maps each byte to a token type.

strOffset

The offset in bytes from the beginning of the resource to the token-string copy routine, a code segment that creates strings that correspond to the text that generated each token.

fetchOffset

The offset in bytes from the beginning of the resource to the extension-fetching routine, a code segment that fetches the second byte of a 2-byte character for the IntlTokenize function.

unTokenOffset

The offset in bytes from the beginning of the resource to the untoken table, an array that maps token types back to the canonical strings that represent them.

defPartsOffset

The offset in bytes from the beginning of the resource to the number parts table, an array of characters that correspond to each part of a number format (used primarily by the FormatRecToString and StringToExtended functions).

whtSpListOffset

The offset in bytes from the beginning of the resource to the whitespace table, a list of all the characters that should be treated
as whitespace--for example, blank and tab for the Roman
script system.

resOffset7

(reserved)

resOffset8

(reserved)

resLength1

(reserved)

resLength2

(reserved)

resLength3

(reserved)

unTokenLength

The length in bytes of the untoken table.

defPartsLength

The length in bytes of the number parts table.

whtSpListLength

The length in bytes of the whitespace table.
