 <h2><b><a name="introduction"></a>Introduction</b></h2>
 <p>Every lexer, which should be used in conjunction with the <tt>Wave</tt> library, has to return tokens formed from the input stream. These tokens should conform to the synopsis described in the topic <a href="class_reference_tokentype.html">The Token Type</a>. The lexer type should expose an interface which conforms at least to a <tt>forward_iterator</tt> (in the sense defined by the the C++ Standard) returning the token type. The code sample below does not show the definition of this forward iterator interface because this is highly implementation defined.</p>
