Member Function Documentation

virtual long Parser::fileTell (    )  [pure virtual]

return the current byte position of the file being parsed Implemented in ArabicParser, ChineseCharParser, ChineseParser, InqArabicParser, InQueryOpParser, ReutersParser, TrecParser, and WebParser.

virtual long Parser::getDocBytePos (    )  [inline, virtual]

return the byte position at the beginning of the current document

bool Parser::isAcronym (  char *    word )  [inline, protected]

Checks to see if the word is in the acronym list. Returns false if the list is not set.

virtual void Parser::parse (  char *    filename )  [inline, virtual]

Parse a file. use parseFile. this method will be deprecated in future

virtual void Parser::parseBuffer (  char *    buf, int    len )  [pure virtual]

Parse a buffer. Implemented in ArabicParser, ChineseCharParser, ChineseParser, InqArabicParser, InQueryOpParser, ReutersParser, TrecParser, and WebParser.

virtual void Parser::parseFile (  char *    filename )  [pure virtual]

Parse a file. Implemented in ArabicParser, ChineseCharParser, ChineseParser, InqArabicParser, InQueryOpParser, ReutersParser, TrecParser, and WebParser.

virtual void Parser::setAcroList (  WordSet *    acronyms )  [inline, virtual]

Set the acronym list. Can be an empty implementation if the parser is not designed to deal with acronyms by using a list.
