The parser is very forgiving and should be able to parse most PDI data streams even when they contain syntax errors.

Default constructor. It is protected as this class must be derived from in order to implement the abstract methods.

DefaultEncoding	This property is used to set or get the default text encoding method used when parsing a PDI data stream.
LineNumber	This returns the current line number being processed from the data stream

Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object)
Flush	This is called to flush any pending property or value data when the end of a data stream has been reached.
GetHashCode	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ParseFile	This method is used to parse one or more PDI objects from the specified file or URL
ParseReader	This method is used to parse one or more PDI objects from a TextReader derived object such as a StreamReader or a StringReader.
ParseString	This method is used to parse one or more PDI objects from a string
PropertyParser	Override this in derived classes to handle properties as they are parsed from the data stream
ResetState	This resets the parser to a default state
ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
