public abstract class Analyzer

extends Object

An Analyzer builds TokenStreams, which analyze text. It thus represents a policy for extracting index terms from text.

Typical implementations first build a Tokenizer, which breaks the stream of characters from the Reader into raw Tokens. One or more TokenFilters may then be applied to the output of the Tokenizer.
