getWordSet

public static HashSet getWordSet(File wordfile)
                          throws IOException

Loads a text file and adds every line as an entry to a HashSet (omitting leading and trailing whitespace). Every line of the file should contain only one word. The words need to be in lowercase if you make use of an Analyzer which uses LowerCaseFilter (like StandardAnalyzer).

Parameters:

wordfile - File containing the wordlist

Returns:

A HashSet with the file's words

Throws:

IOException

getWordSet

public static HashSet getWordSet(Reader reader)
                          throws IOException

Reads lines from a Reader and adds every line as an entry to a HashSet (omitting leading and trailing whitespace). Every line of the Reader should contain only one word. The words need to be in lowercase if you make use of an Analyzer which uses LowerCaseFilter (like StandardAnalyzer).

Parameters:

reader - Reader containing the wordlist

Returns:

A HashSet with the reader's words

Throws:

IOException

getStemDict

public static HashMap getStemDict(File wordstemfile)
                           throws IOException

Reads a stem dictionary. Each line contains:

word\tstem

(i.e. two tab seperated words)

Returns:

stem dictionary that overrules the stemming algorithm

Throws:

IOException
