The mksyd utility creates the custom thesaurus using a control file as input. It is located in:
$SYBASE/$SYBASE_FTS/verity/bin
Run, or define an alias to run, mksyd from this bin directory. Create your custom thesaurus in any work directory.
The mksyd syntax for creating a custom thesaurus is:
mksyd -f control_file.ctl -syd custom_thesaurus.syd
where:
control_file – is the name of the control file you create in Creating the Control File above
custom_thesaurus – is the name of the custom thesaurus you are creating
For example, to execute the mksyd utility reading the sample control file defined above, and directing output to a work directory, use the syntax:
mksyd -f /usr/u/sybase/dba/thesaurus/colors.ctl -syd /usr/u/sybase/dba/thesaurus/custom.syd
