How to define a custom separator in TLex

From Forum Nokia Wiki

TLex does not provide support for user defined separators, hence a possible workaround could be using the MarkedToken(), Mark(), Get(), and Peek() methods for achieving the desired results.

// As an example taking "," as a separator.
_LIT8(KSomeConstString, "first, second, third, fourth");

TLex8 lex(KSomeConstString);
TChar ch;
 
TBuf8<50> token;
 
while((ch = lex.Get()) != 0 )
    {
    while ((ch = lex.Peek()) != ',') 
        lex.Inc();
		
    token.Copy(lex.MarkedToken());
 
    /* Now we have the string as the token, 
     * do something.. */
 
    lex.Inc();
    lex.Mark();
    }
