[Firebird-docs] Reserved Words + Glossary - any progress?

[Paul V. <pa...@vi...>]

Hi Lester, and all,

Any progress yet with the Reserved Words + Glossary? I had the idea to
commit it to CVS, no matter how many holes there still are. This way
everybody can see which definitions/descriptions fail, and contribute.
As long as Lester is the only one who has the source, nobody else can
work on it.

You have the current one in the CVS. The SQL2003 one I am working on
will take a bit more time, and then need a shift to XML.

Anybody know there the SQL reference in IBOConsole came from, I'm
tempted to drop that, and any bits people have that we can use are more
than welcome.

I'm currently trying to get the DataDict stuff working in ADOdb for
Firebird 1.5, and part of that is a link to the XML stuff, so I should
be able to export directly from the Firebird database :)

Oops - *blush*

Totally forgot I already committed it two months ago :-)

What if I change firebirddocs.xml (the master document) so that from
now on it includes the Reserved Words list + Glossary? Not yet for web
publication of course, but doccers homebuilding the module would
then notice the glossary and can help to fill holes. I don't mind
contributing a few descriptions myself. It's not too difficult, after
all it's a glossary, not an SQL reference.

Sorry, no idea. Is it also in IBConsole? If so it's GPL and we can use
it.
