Nguyen Minh Gia Huy commented on LUCENE-9588:
---------------------------------------------
I wonder what should be the appropriate usage of this class ?
Let's say I want a Tokenizer that breaks the text into sentences and send each
sentence to another tokenizer, for example WhiteSpaceTokenizer, for
segmentation.To do so, I would have to make that tokenizer implement the
SegmentingTokenizerBase and invoke the WhiteSpaceTokenizer in the
*incrementWord* method. WhiteSpaceTokenizer implements the Tokenizer so it
throws I/O exception during analysis.
How the I/O and segmentation could be separated in such cases ? Is
SegmentingTokenizerBase intended to limit the usage for only non-i/o
segmentation e.g.
[HMMChineseTokenizer|https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/blob/master/lucene/analysis/smartcn/src/java/org/apache/lucene/analysis/cn/smart/HMMChineseTokenizer.java#L46]
splits sentence by WordSegmenter, which don't require I/O handling ?

> Key: LUCENE-9588
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9588
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: modules/analysis
> Affects Versions: 8.6.3
> Reporter: Nguyen Minh Gia Huy
> Priority: Minor
>
> The current interface of *setNextSentence* and *incrementWord* methods in
> *SegmentingTokenizerBase* do not define the checked exceptions, which makes
> it troublesome to be inherited.
> For example, if we override the incrementWord with a logic that invoke
> incrementToken on another tokenizer, the incrementToken raises the
> IOException but the incrementWord is not defined to handle it.
> I think having setNextSentence and incrementWord handle the IOException would
> make the SegmentingTokenizerBase easier to be used.
