ValidateContentFromTextFile

• Descriptions:
  Validate the contents of lexical records from a text file. It validates contents in a single lexical record (no cross-reference check among lexical records):
  • Check Reg (glreg & regd):
    • Check inflection rules on glreg for nouns
    • Check inflection rules on regd for verbs and adjs
  • Check/fix duplicated terms:
    • Check duplicated base & spelling variants
    • Check duplicated acronyms
    • Check duplicated abbreviations
    • Check duplicated nominalizations in noun, verb, adj
    • Check duplicated variant (irreg) in noun, verb, adj, adv, etc.

• Usage:
  shell>ValidateContentFromTextFile <inFile> <outFile> <prepositions.data> <particles.data> <irregExpFile> <-v>
  • inFile: lexical record in text format
  • outFile: auto-fixed lexical record in text format
  • prepositionFile: the preposition file
    default: use the prepositions.data included in the lexCheck${YEAR}api.jar or lexCheck${YEAR}dist.jar
    => prepositions are used in the class of Compl.CheckPreposition.java
  • particleFile: the particle file
    default: use the particles.data included in the lexCheck${YEAR}api.jar or lexCheck${YEAR}dist.jar
    => particles are used in the class of Compl.CheckParticle.java
  • irregExpFile: the irregExceptions.data file, if the specified file does not exist, use the default irregExceptions.data in lexCheck${YEAR}api.jar or lexCheck${YEAR}dist.jar
  • -v: set verbose to true, default: fault

• Outputs:
  • On screen message:
    • Confirmed message if records are valid.
    • Otherwise, error message
  • outFile: Auto-fixed Lexicon (remove duplicates)

• Notes:
  • Must include:
    • lexCheck${YEAR}dist.jar (for LVG APIs) or
    • lexCheck${YEAR}api.jar and lvg${YEAR}api.jar
  • Benchmark run time for Lexicon to generate both Lexicon and inflVars: 10 ~ 15 sec.

• Examples:
  • shell> ValidateContentFromTextFile lexicon.txt lexicon.fixed ./data/Files/prepositions.data ./data/Files/particles.data ./data/Files/irregExceptions.data -v
  • shell> ValidateContentFromTextFile lexicon.txt lexicon.fixed ./data/Files/prepositions.data ./data/Files/particles.data ./data/Files/irregExceptions.data
