Steven Rowe commented on LUCENE-2167:
-------------------------------------
Good point, Marvin - indexing URLs makes no sense without query support for
them. (Is this a stupid can of worms for me to have opened?) I have used
Lucene tokenizers for other things than retrieval (e.g. term vectors as input
to other processes), and I suspect I'm not alone. The ability to extract URLs
would be very nice.
Ideally, URL analysis would produce both the full URL as a single token, and as
overlapping tokens the hostname, path components, etc. However, I don't think
it's a good idea for the tokenizer to output overlapping tokens - I suspect
this would break more than a few things.
A filter that breaks URL type tokens into their components, and then adds them
as overlapping tokens, or replaces the full URL with the components, should be
easy to write, though.

> It would be really nice for StandardTokenizer to adhere straight to the
> standard as much as we can with jflex. Then its name would actually make
> sense.
> Such a transition would involve renaming the old StandardTokenizer to
> EuropeanTokenizer, as its javadoc claims:
> bq. This should be a good tokenizer for most European-language documents
> The new StandardTokenizer could then say
> bq. This should be a good tokenizer for most languages.
> All the english/euro-centric stuff like the acronym/company/apostrophe stuff
> can stay with that EuropeanTokenizer, and it could be used by the european
> analyzers.
