The caller must pass in a Class<? extends Attribute> value. This method first checks if an instance of that class is already in this AttributeSource and returns it. Otherwise a new instance is created, added to this AttributeSource and returned. Signature for Java 1.5:

CopyC#

public <T extends Attribute> T addAttribute(Class<T>)

Adds a custom AttributeImpl instance with one or more Attribute interfaces.

Evaluates the new shingle token weight. for (shingle part token in shingle) weight += shingle part token weight * (1 / sqrt(all shingle part token weights summed)) This algorithm gives a slightly greater score for longer shingles and is rather penalising to great shingle token part weights.

Captures the state of all Attributes. The return value can be passed to {@link #restoreState} to restore the state of this or another AttributeSource.

Resets all Attributes in this AttributeSource by calling {@link AttributeImpl#Clear()} on each Attribute implementation.

Performs a clone of all {@link AttributeImpl} instances returned in a new AttributeSource instance. This method can be used to e.g. create another TokenStream with exactly the same attributes (using {@link #AttributeSource(AttributeSource)})

Releases resources associated with this stream.

This method is called by the consumer after the last token has been consumed, after {@link #IncrementToken()} returned

CopyC#

false

(using the new

CopyC#

TokenStream

API). Streams implementing the old API should upgrade to use this feature.

This method can be used to perform any end-of-stream operations, such as setting the final offset of a stream. The final offset of a stream might differ from the offset of the last token eg in case one or more whitespaces followed after the last token, but a {@link WhitespaceTokenizer} was used.

Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.

The caller must pass in a Class<? extends Attribute> value. Returns the instance of the passed in Attribute contained in this AttributeSource Signature for Java 1.5:

CopyC#

public <T extends Attribute> T getAttribute(Class<T>)

Returns a new iterator that iterates the attribute classes in the same order they were added in. Signature for Java 1.5:

CopyC#

public Iterator<Class<? extends Attribute>> getAttributeClassesIterator()

Note that this return value is different from Java in that it enumerates over the values and not the keys

returns the used AttributeFactory.

Returns a new iterator that iterates all unique Attribute implementations. This iterator may contain less entries that {@link #getAttributeClassesIterator}, if one instance implements more than one Attribute interface. Signature for Java 1.5:

CopyC#

public Iterator<AttributeImpl> getAttributeImplsIterator()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

The caller must pass in a Class<? extends Attribute> value. Returns true, iff this AttributeSource contains the passed-in Attribute. Signature for Java 1.5:

CopyC#

public boolean hasAttribute(Class<? extends Attribute>)

Returns true, iff this AttributeSource has any attributes

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Restores this state by copying the values of all attribute implementations that this state contains into the attributes implementations of the targetStream. The targetStream must contain a corresponding instance for each argument contained in this state (e.g. it is not possible to restore the state of an AttributeSource containing a TermAttribute into a AttributeSource using a Token instance as implementation). Note that this method does not affect attributes of the targetStream that are not contained in this state. In other words, if for example the targetStream contains an OffsetAttribute, but this state doesn't, then the value of the OffsetAttribute remains unchanged. It might be desirable to reset its value to the default, in which case the caller should first call {@link TokenStream#ClearAttributes()} on the targetStream.

Final touch of a shingle token before it is passed on to the consumer from method {@link #next(org.apache.lucene.analysis.Token)}. Calculates and sets type, flags, position increment, start/end offsets and weight.
