<extern>

Element: extern

Child Elements: none

Description: Identifies an external grammar by name so that you do not have to explicitly name the grammar when you refer to the entities that it contains. For example, if the external grammar is called grammar1, and it has an entity entity1, then in your current grammar, you can refer to the entity as entity1 rather than grammar1/entity1.

Example: <extern name="grammar2"/>
