[Attempto] [Cannot use my own clex with APE]

[Kaarel Kaljurand]

Hi,

I can confirm this behavior. One fix is to increase the global stack
in make_exe (e.g. to global(500000)) and then recompile. Then this
worked:

$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Attempto/Clex/master/clex_lexicon.pl
...
$ ./ape.exe -ulexfile clex_lexicon.pl -text "John eats an apple." -solo drs
drs([A,B],[object(A,apple,countable,na,eq,1)-1/4,predicate(B,eat,named('John'),A)-1/2])

A better option is to compile the large lexicon into ape.exe, i.e.

curl https://raw.github.com/Attempto/Clex/master/clex_lexicon.pl >
lexicon/clex_lexicon.pl
sh make_exe.sh

(as shown in the README of https://github.com/Attempto/Clex)

An even better option is to provide only the lexicon entries that are
needed to parse the given input (using "ulextext"). This way APE does
not need to parse the whole lexicon every time when it is called.
Also, there is no need to compile any entries into the APE executable.
This is the approach taken in ACE View and AceWiki which manage the
complete lexicon entries in their application-specific database.

Best,
Kaarel
