All Superinterfaces:

All Known Implementing Classes:

PositionLengthAttributeImpl, Token

public interface PositionLengthAttribute
extends Attribute

The positionLength determines how many positions this token spans. Very few analyzer components actually produce this attribute, and indexing ignores it, but it's useful to express the graph structure naturally produced by decompounding, word splitting/joining, synonym filtering, etc.

The default value is one.
