class LexcCompiler

A compiler holding information contained in lexc style lexicons. A single LexcCompiler can be extended by adding entries to it, but little else can be done with it. It is sufficient to implement clone of lexc.

---

init (self)

Create a lexc compiler for unspecified transducer format.

---

init (self, impl)

Create a lexc compiler with impl as transducer format.

---

init (self, impl, withFlags)

Create a lexc compiler with impl as transducer format.

---

parse (infile)

Compile lexc description from infile into current compiler.

---

parse (filename)

Compile lexc description from file @a filename into current compiler.

---

setVerbosity (verbose)

Set verbosity options. When verbose is true, LexcCompiler will output the messages that Xerox lexc compiler does.

---

addAlphabet (alphabet)

Add @a alphabet to multicharacter symbol set. These symbols may be used for regular expression ? for backends that do not support open alphabets.

---

addNoFlag (lexname)

todo

---

setCurrentLexiconName (lexicon_name)

Set current processing lexicon name to @a lexicon_name.

---

addStringEntry (entry, continuation, weight)

Add entry defined by a @a entry to current lexicon, pointing to @a continuation weighing @a weight to current lexicon.

---

addStringPairEntry (upper, lower, continuation, weight)

Add entry defined by @a upper:@a lower, pointing to @a continuation weighing @a weight to current lexicon.

---

addXreEntry (xre, continuation, weight)

Add entry defined by regular expression @a xre, pointing to @a continuation weighing @a weight to current lexicon.

---

addXreDefinition (name, xre)

Add macro definition named @a name matching regular expression @a xre to known xerox regular expressions.

---

setInitialLexiconName (lexicon_name)

Set start lexicon's name to @a lexicon_name.

---

compileLexical ()

Create final usable version of current lexicons and entries. Return: HfstTransducer pointer.

---

printConnectedness ()

Check that current morphotax is connected and print anomalies. Works like xerox lexc, for compatibility.
