Great. :)

A small style thought:

+     this->val += char(this->char_code % 256);
+     this->state = st_in_string;
+-    return;
++    if (!handled) {
++        inString(ch);
++    }

You've lost the explicit "return" there. So far as I can see there's no
practical impact, I just wasn't sure if you wanted it stylistically.

Either way, please go ahead.

Adam
