public final class GermanStemFilter
extends TokenFilter

A TokenFilter that stems German words.

It supports a table of words that should not be stemmed at all. The stemmer used can be changed at runtime after the filter object is created (as long as it is a GermanStemmer).

Constructor Detail

GermanStemFilter

public GermanStemFilter(TokenStream in)

GermanStemFilter

public GermanStemFilter(TokenStream in,
                        Set exclusionSet)
Builds a GermanStemFilter that uses an exclusion table.

Method Detail

incrementToken

public boolean incrementToken()
                       throws IOException
Description copied from class: TokenStream
Consumers (i.e., IndexWriter) use this method to advance the stream to the next token. Implementing classes must implement this method and update the appropriate AttributeImpls with the attributes of the next token.

The producer must make no assumptions about the attributes after the method has been returned: the caller may arbitrarily change it. If the producer needs to preserve the state for subsequent calls, it can use AttributeSource.captureState() to create a copy of the current attribute state.

This method is called for every token of a document, so an efficient implementation is crucial for good performance. To avoid calls to AttributeSource.addAttribute(Class) and AttributeSource.getAttribute(Class) or downcasts, references to all AttributeImpls that this stream uses should be retrieved during instantiation.

To ensure that filters and consumers know which attributes are available, the attributes must be added during instantiation. Filters and consumers are not required to check for availability of attributes in TokenStream.incrementToken().

Overrides:
incrementToken in class TokenStream
Returns:
Returns true for next token in the stream, or false at EOS
Throws:
IOException

setStemmer

public void setStemmer(GermanStemmer stemmer)
Set a alternative/custom GermanStemmer for this filter.


setExclusionSet

public void setExclusionSet(Set exclusionSet)
Set an alternative exclusion list for this filter.
