/** The positionIncrement determines the position of this token
 * relative to the previous Token in a TokenStream, used in phrase
 * searching.
 *
 * <p>The default value is one.
 *
 * <p>Some common uses for this are:
    * * <li>Set it to zero to put multiple terms in the same position. This is * useful if, e.g., a word has multiple stems. Searches for phrases * including either stem will match. In this case, all but the first stem's * increment should be set to zero: the increment of the first instance * should be one. Repeating a token with an increment of zero can also be * used to boost the scores of matches on that token. * * <li>Set it to values greater than one to inhibit exact phrase matches. * If, for example, one does not want phrases to match across removed stop * words, then one could build a stop word filter that removes stop words and * also sets the increment to the number of stop words removed before each * non-stop word. Then exact phrase queries will only match when the terms * occur with no intervening stop words. * * </ul> * * @see org.apache.lucene.index.TermPositions */ public interface PositionIncrementAttribute extends Attribute { /** Set the position increment. The default value is one. * * @param positionIncrement the distance from the prior term */ public void setPositionIncrement(int positionIncrement); /** Returns the position increment of this Token. * @see #setPositionIncrement */ public int getPositionIncrement(); }
