Class ScandinavianFoldingFilter

This filter folds Scandinavian characters åÅäæÄÆ->a and öÖøØ->o. It also discriminate against use of double vowels aa, ae, ao, oe and oo, leaving just the first one.

It's is a semantically more destructive solution than ScandinavianNormalizationFilter but can in addition help with matching raksmorgas as räksmörgås.

blåbærsyltetøj == blåbärsyltetöj == blaabaarsyltetoej == blabarsyltetoj räksmörgås == ræksmørgås == ræksmörgaos == raeksmoergaas == raksmorgas

Background: Swedish åäö are in fact the same letters as Norwegian and Danish åæø and thus interchangeable when used between these languages. They are however folded differently when people type them on a keyboard lacking these characters.

In that situation almost all Swedish people use a, a, o instead of å, ä, ö.

Norwegians and Danes on the other hand usually type aa, ae and oe instead of å, æ and ø. Some do however use a, a, o, oo, ao and sometimes permutations of everything above.

This filter solves that mismatch problem, but might also cause new.

ScandinavianFoldingFilter(TokenStream)

This filter folds Scandinavian characters åÅäæÄÆ->a and öÖøØ->o. It also discriminate against use of double vowels aa, ae, ao, oe and oo, leaving just the first one.

It's is a semantically more destructive solution than ScandinavianNormalizationFilter but can in addition help with matching raksmorgas as räksmörgås.

Methods

IncrementToken()

Consumers (i.e., Lucene.Net.Index.IndexWriter) use this method to advance the stream to the next token. Implementing classes must implement this method and update the appropriate Lucene.Net.Util.IAttributes 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 Lucene.Net.Util.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 Lucene.Net.Util.AttributeSource.AddAttribute<T>() and Lucene.Net.Util.AttributeSource.GetAttribute<T>(), references to all Lucene.Net.Util.IAttributes 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 Lucene.Net.Analysis.TokenStream.IncrementToken().
