LexBuild - Crossing references

This feature checks and fixes the crossing references automatically for a given LEXICON (static file). Crossing references are EUI used as references among lexical records. They are used in abbreviations, acronyms, and nominalizations. The checking logics and operating procedures are described as follows:

  • Programs:
    Script programs can be found at: $LB_DIR/Tools/PostProcessing/CheckCrossRef. Please see below for details:

  • Operation Procedures:
    The crossing reference feature can be run in the LexBuild web tool as well as in the post-processing command lines.

  • Notes:
    The Cross-reference can be a base or it's spelling variants. In order to find the spelling variants, we need to use both database tables of LEX_RECORD and INFL_VARS in LexBuild DB. By design, table of LEX_RECORD should not be modified. However, INFL_VARS can be generated/reloaded by LEX_RECORD daily to keep it update and correct. This is done in Fix Hidden Records!
