maximestein commented on issue #345: OPENNLP-1236: Add arabic and greek
stemmers support
URL: https://github.com/apache/opennlp/pull/345#issuecomment-456778410
Thanks for your review. All the documentation about generating the stemmers
can be found on the [snowball
website](http://snowballstem.org/runtime/use.html).
The steps are:
- Download [Snowball](https://github.com/snowballstem/snowball)
- Build the Snowball compiler
- Call the Snowball compiler on the ```.sbl``` stemmer file of your choice
among [those
available](https://github.com/snowballstem/snowball/tree/master/algorithms).
The ```-java``` option is used to generate Java code.
However, the stemmer files in this PR are slightly different from the output
of the Snowball compiler. The ```methodname``` and ```methodobject``` arguments
have been added to the ```Among``` objects instantiations, as you will find out
that those are lacking from the Snowball compiler output.
