OK, I looked at the overload set of the Java API and this is indeed in
there:
Object create (int tokenType, Token fromToken);
Object create (int tokenType, Token fromToken, String text);
Object create (int tokenType, String text);
However, as I said before, this is not what is explained in the book
and, as I'm programming against the C target, this is what I used at
first to reason from. It does not even mention the ability to set only
the text of a node.
Thanks for taking the time to explain me all of this
Sven
