Gary Gregory commented on CODEC-187: ------------------------------------ It sounds like the code is so broken that it needs to be fixed. keeping it around does not make a lot of sense. I'd like to get Matthew's opinion. > Beider Morse Phonetic Matching producing incorrect tokens > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CODEC-187 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CODEC-187 > Project: Commons Codec > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.9 > Reporter: michael tobias > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.10 > > Attachments: CODEC-187.patch > > > I believe the Beider Morse Phonetic Matching algorithm was added in Commons > Codec 1.6 > The BMPM algorithm is an EVOLVING algorithm that is currently on version 3.02 > though it had been static since version 3.01 dated 19 Dec 2011 (it was first > available as opensource as version 1.00 on 6 May 2009). > I can see nothing in the Commons Codec Docs to say which version of BMPM was > implemented so I am not sure if the problem with the algorithm as coded in > the Codec is simply an old version or whether there are more basic problems > with the implementation. > How do I determine the version of the algorithm that was implemented in the > Commons Codec? > How do we ensure that the algorithm is updated if/when the BMPM algorithm > changes? > How do we ensure that the algorithm as coded in the Commons Codec is accurate > and working as expected? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
