Uwe Thanks for the reply. Given that SnowBallAnalyzer is made up of a series of filters, I was thinking about something like this where I 'pipe' output from one filter to the next:
standardTokenizer =new StandardTokenizer (...); standardFilter = new StandardFilter(standardTokenizer,...); stopFilter = new StopFilter(standardFilter,...); snowballFilter = new SnowballFilter(stopFilter,...); But ignore LowerCaseFilter. Does this make sense? Thanks Martin O'Shea. -----Original Message----- From: Uwe Schindler [mailto:u...@thetaphi.de] Sent: 10 Nov 2014 14 06 To: java-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: RE: How to disable LowerCaseFilter when using SnowballAnalyzer in Lucene 3.0.2 Hi, In general, you cannot change Analyzers, they are "examples" and can be seen as "best practise". If you want to modify them, write your own Analyzer subclass which uses the wanted Tokenizers and TokenFilters as you like. You can for example clone the source code of the original and remove LowercaseFilter. Analyzers are very simple, there is no logic in them, it's just some "configuration" (which Tokenizer and which TokenFilters). In later Lucene 3 and Lucene 4, this is very simple: You just need to override createComponents in Analyzer class and add your "configuration" there. If you use Apache Solr or Elasticsearch you can create your analyzers by XML or JSON configuration.
