<modulesummary>Interface module to the flex scanner linked in driver.</modulesummary>
<description>
<p>This module contains the public interface to the flex scanner
linked in driver. The flex scanner performs the scanning phase
of text message decoding.</p>
<p>The flex scanner is written using a tool called <em>flex</em>.
In order to be able to compile the flex scanner driver, this
tool has to be available. </p>
<p>By default the flex scanner reports line-number of an error.
But it can be built without line-number reporting. Instead
token number is used. This will speed up the scanning some
5-10%. Use <c><![CDATA[--disable-megaco-flex-scanner-lineno]]></c> when
configuring the application.</p>
<p>The scanner will, by default, be built as a reentrant scanner <em>if</em> the
flex utility supports this (it depends on the version of flex).
It is possible to explicitly disable this even when flex support this.
Use <c><![CDATA[--disable-megaco-reentrant-flex-scanner]]></c> when
configuring the application.</p>

<p>This function is used to start the flex scanner.
It locates the library and loads the linked in driver.</p>
<p>On a single core system or if it's a non-reentrant scanner,
a single port is created. On a multi-core system with a reentrant
scanner, several ports will be created (one for each scheduler). </p>
<p>Note that the process that calls this function <em>must</em>
be permanent. If it dies, the port(s) will exit and the driver unload.</p>
