Methods

Method Description
PutAltWord

Puts an alternative form of a word in the WordFormSink.

PutWord

Puts the original word form in the WordFormSink.

 

Remarks

Indexing Service creates and initializes instances of the StemSink object. The WordFormSink receives the ulMaxTokenSize parameter during initialization. The value for this parameter is determined by the IStemmer implementation and determines the maximum length, in characters, for a single word that the WordFormSink handles.

IStemmer implementations receive a pointer to the WordFormSink object in the GenerateWordForms method.
