how to define grammar for: create package ... end; create package body ... end; [message #556825]

Hello, I thought I would solve this myself, but I've spent several hours and don't see how:

I want to have the grammar for the following:

create package ... end;

create package body ... end;

but my grammar does not work:

it insists to have 'body' after create package

Model:
'CREATE PACKAGE' header=HEADER 'CREATE PACKAGE BODY' body=BODY;

HEADER:
name=ID 'IS' content=PackageHeaderContent end=END name1=ID ';' ('/')?;

BODY:
name=ID 'IS' content=Dummy end=END name1=ID ';' ('/')?;

Hi,

don't use keywords with spaces within!

Model:
"CREATE" "PACKAGE" header=HEADER "CREATE" "PACKAGE" "BODY" body=BODY;

Second: The Xtext naming Convestion is to use CamelCase for Parser Rules and not UPPERCASE. UPPERCASE is reseved for terminals.
