# Token.NewToken Method

Returns a new Token object, by default. However, if you want, you can create and return subclass objects based on the value of ofKind. Simply add the cases to the switch for all those special cases. For example, if you have a subclass of Token called IDToken that you want to create if ofKind is ID, simlpy add something like : case MyParserConstants.ID : return new IDToken(); to the following switch statement. Then you can cast matchedToken variable to the appropriate type and use it in your lexical actions.

public static Token NewToken(
int ofKind
);
