Re: [platform-help-dev] Lucene analyzers for double-byte languages?

["Dorian Birsan" <birsan@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Erik,

Search should work in the languages
you listed, as eclipse provides a default analyzer.
The English and German analyzers are
a bit smarter, as they deal with stemming, stop words, etc.
You could certainly pick up 3rd party
plugins and contribute them as plugins in your product (that's the intention
of the analyzer extension point).

Help Developers:

With regard to

    http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/platform-help-dev/msg00082.html

has there been any success in creating Lucene analyzers for Japanese,
Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, and Korean?

Our need is to enable search in these languages on Eclipse 2.0.2

If there aren't any analyzers, would we need to hack the JSPs to disable
or
hide the search UI?  (Merely to confirm.)

I did notice in looking at the Lucene site that an analyzer is available
for Simplified Chinese:

    http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=lucene-dev&m=100705753831746&q=p3

I presume that would need a wrapper to plug into the
org.eclipse.help.luceneAnalyzer extension point.


Thanks,
