    public final class ClassicTokenizer

extends Tokenizer

A grammar-based tokenizer constructed with JFlex

This should be a good tokenizer for most European-language documents:

- Splits words at punctuation characters, removing punctuation. However, a dot that's not followed by whitespace is considered part of a token.
- Splits words at hyphens, unless there's a number in the token, in which case the whole token is interpreted as a product number and is not split.
- Recognizes email addresses and internet hostnames as one token.

Many applications have specific tokenizer needs. If this tokenizer does not suit your application, please consider copying this source code directory to your project and maintaining your own grammar-based tokenizer.

You must specify the required `Version` compatibility when creating ClassicAnalyzer:

- As of 2.4, Tokens incorrectly identified as acronyms are corrected (see LUCENE-1608

ClassicTokenizer was named StandardTokenizer in Lucene versions prior to 3.1. As of 3.1, `StandardTokenizer` implements Unicode text segmentation, as specified by UAX#29.

Constructor Detail

### ClassicTokenizer

    public ClassicTokenizer(Version matchVersion,
                            Reader input)

  Creates a new instance of the `ClassicTokenizer`. Attaches the `input` to the newly created JFlex scanner.

  Parameters:
    `input` - The input reader See http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1068

### ClassicTokenizer

    public ClassicTokenizer(Version matchVersion,
                            AttributeSource source,
                            Reader input)

  Creates a new ClassicTokenizer with a given `AttributeSource`.

### ClassicTokenizer

    public ClassicTokenizer(Version matchVersion,
                            AttributeSource.AttributeFactory factory,
                            Reader input)

  Creates a new ClassicTokenizer with a given `AttributeSource.AttributeFactory`

Method Detail

### setMaxTokenLength

    public void setMaxTokenLength(int length)

  Set the max allowed token length. Any token longer than this is skipped.

### getMaxTokenLength

    public int getMaxTokenLength()

  See Also:
    `setMaxTokenLength(int)`

### incrementToken

    public final boolean incrementToken()
                                 throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `TokenStream`
  Consumers (i.e., `IndexWriter`) use this method to advance the stream to the next token. Implementing classes must implement this method and update the appropriate `AttributeImpl`s 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 `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 `AttributeSource.addAttribute(Class)` and `AttributeSource.getAttribute(Class)`, references to all `AttributeImpl`s 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 `TokenStream.incrementToken()`.

  Specified by:
    `incrementToken` in class `TokenStream`
  Returns:
    false for end of stream; true otherwise
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### end

    public final void end()

  Description copied from class: `TokenStream`
  This method is called by the consumer after the last token has been consumed, after `TokenStream.incrementToken()` returned `false` (using the new `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 `WhitespaceTokenizer` was used.

  Overrides:
    `end` in class `TokenStream`

### reset

    public void reset(Reader reader)
               throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `Tokenizer`
  Expert: Reset the tokenizer to a new reader. Typically, an analyzer (in its reusableTokenStream method) will use this to re-use a previously created tokenizer.

  Overrides:
    `reset` in class `Tokenizer`
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### isReplaceInvalidAcronym

    @Deprecated
    public boolean isReplaceInvalidAcronym()

  Deprecated. Remove in 3.X and make true the only valid value

  Prior to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1068, ClassicTokenizer mischaracterized as acronyms tokens like www.abc.com when they should have been labeled as hosts instead.

  Returns:
    true if ClassicTokenizer now returns these tokens as Hosts, otherwise false

### setReplaceInvalidAcronym

    @Deprecated
    public void setReplaceInvalidAcronym(boolean replaceInvalidAcronym)

  Deprecated. Remove in 3.X and make true the only valid value See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1068

  Parameters:
    `replaceInvalidAcronym` - Set to true to replace mischaracterized acronyms as HOST.
