Classes

Analyzer for German language. Supports an external list of stopwords (words that will not be indexed at all) and an external list of exclusions (word that will not be stemmed, but indexed). A default set of stopwords is used unless an alternative list is specified, the exclusion list is empty by default.

A filter 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).

A stemmer for German words. The algorithm is based on the report "A Fast and Simple Stemming Algorithm for German Words" by Jörg Caumanns (joerg.caumanns@isst.fhg.de).

Loads a text file and adds every line as an entry to a Hashtable. Every line should contain only one word. If the file is not found or on any error, an empty table is returned.
