Add KeyWord to SQLTokenMaker

[Guest]

Hi,

my target is to create a PL/SQLTokenMaker (oracle database langauage) which has some keywords like "PROCEDURE".
Is it possible to "reuse" the current SQLTokenMaker and add some new keywords or must I create a complete new TokenMaker?

Many thanks

Martin

Hi Martin,

There is currently no way to add keywords to an existing language, though there is a Feature Request for it. I might end up adding this soon since it is a nice trade-off between being able to add and remove keywords from a language (the most robust solution) and what we have today (can't change existing lexers whatsoever without changing the .flex source).
