All Implemented Interfaces:

StandardParserTreeConstants, Parser, StandardParserConstants
```
public class StandardParser
extends Object
implements StandardParserTreeConstants, Parser, StandardParserConstants
```
This class is responsible for parsing a Velocity template. This class was generated by JavaCC using the JJTree extension to produce an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) of the template. Please look at the Parser.jjt file which is what controls the generation of this class.

- Field Detail
  - jjtree
```
protected JJTStandardParserState jjtree
```
  - currentTemplate
```
public Template currentTemplate
```
    Current template we are parsing. Passed to us in parse()
  - strictEscape
```
public boolean strictEscape
```
    Set to true if the property RuntimeConstants.RUNTIME_REFERENCES_STRICT_ESCAPE is set to true
  - hyphenAllowedInIdentifiers
```
public boolean hyphenAllowedInIdentifiers
```
    Set to true if the propoerty RuntimeConstants.PARSER_HYPHEN_ALLOWED is set to true
  - token_source
```
public StandardParserTokenManager token_source
```
    Generated Token Manager.
  - token
```
public Token token
```
    Current token.
  - jj_nt
```
public Token jj_nt
```
    Next token.
- Constructor Detail
  - StandardParser
```
public StandardParser(RuntimeServices rs)
```
    This constructor was added to allow the re-use of parsers. The normal constructor takes a single argument which an InputStream. This simply creates a re-usable parser object, we satisfy the requirement of an InputStream by using a newline character as an input stream.
  - StandardParser
```
public StandardParser(CharStream stream)
```
    Constructor with user supplied CharStream.
  - StandardParser
```
public StandardParser(StandardParserTokenManager tm)
```
    Constructor with generated Token Manager.
- Method Detail
  - trace
```
public static void trace(String message)
```
    Our own trace method. Use sparsingly in production, since each and every call will introduce an execution branch and slow down parsing.
  - getRuntimeServices
```
public RuntimeServices getRuntimeServices()
```
    Specified by:
    
    getRuntimeServices in interface Parser
  - parse
```
public SimpleNode parse(Reader reader,
                        Template template)
                 throws ParseException
```
    This was also added to allow parsers to be re-usable. Normal JavaCC use entails passing an input stream to the constructor and the parsing process is carried out once. We want to be able to re-use parsers: we do this by adding this method and re-initializing the lexer with the new stream that we want parsed.
    
    Specified by:
    
    parse in interface Parser
    
    Throws:
    
    ParseException
  - getDirective
```
public Directive getDirective(String directive)
```
    This method gets a Directive from the directives Hashtable
    
    Specified by:
    
    getDirective in interface Parser
  - isDirective
```
public boolean isDirective(String directive)
```
    This method finds out of the directive exists in the directives Map.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isDirective in interface Parser
  - getCurrentTemplate
```
public Template getCurrentTemplate()

  - dollar
```
public char dollar()
```
    Specified by:
    
    dollar in interface Parser
  - hash
```
public char hash()
```
    Specified by:
    
    hash in interface Parser

```
    Specified by:
    
    at in interface Parser
  - asterisk
```
public char asterisk()
```
    Specified by:
    
    asterisk in interface Parser
  - process
```
public final SimpleNode process()
                         throws ParseException
```
    This method is what starts the whole parsing process. After the parsing is complete and the template has been turned into an AST, this method returns the root of AST which can subsequently be traversed by a visitor which implements the ParserVisitor interface which is generated automatically by JavaCC
    
    Throws:
    
    ParseException
  - Statement
```
public final boolean Statement(boolean afterNewline)
                        throws ParseException
```
    These are the types of statements that are acceptable in Velocity templates.
    
    Throws:
    
    ParseException
  - EndingZeroWidthWhitespace
```
public final void EndingZeroWidthWhitespace()
                                     throws ParseException
```
    Throws:
    
    ParseException
  - EscapedDirective
```
public final void EscapedDirective()
                            throws ParseException
```
    used to separate the notion of a valid directive that has been escaped, versus something that looks like a directive and is just schmoo. This is important to do as a separate production that creates a node, because we want this, in either case, to stop the further parsing of the Directive() tree.
    
    Throws:
    
    ParseException
  - Escape
```
public final void Escape()
                  throws ParseException
```
    Used to catch and process escape sequences in grammatical constructs as escapes outside of VTL are just characters. Right now we have both this and the EscapeDirective() construction because in the EscapeDirective() case, we want to suck in the #<directive> and here we don't. We just want the escapes to render correctly
    
    Throws:
    
    ParseException
  - Comment
```
