We talked about this during PGCon. The idea that seemed to have consensues there was to export the parser similarly to how we build the ecpg parser, that is, a set of perl scripts which take our gram.y as input and modify it to emit something different. What ecpg does with it is emit a different grammar, but it doesn't seem impossible to me to have it emit some sort of (lint) checker. I admit I haven't looked at the new Perl scripts we use in ecpg (they were rewritten in the 9.1 era). -- Álvaro Herrera <alvhe...@commandprompt.com> The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc.
