The MaxL data-definition language has its own grammar that you use to create statements. In this document, the syntax for the MaxL DDL is illustrated using railroad diagrams.
The MaxL grammar is case-insensitive. Semicolon statement-terminators are required when using the MaxL Shell. However, do not use semicolons at the end of statements passed using Perl functions.
Key words of the MaxL grammar are represented in this document in lower-case. Terminals, represented in upper-case, are to be replaced by the appropriate names, numbers, privileges, or strings. For more information about components of MaxL statements, see MaxL Definitions.
