                 Key: LUCENE-1824
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1824
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: contrib/*
         Environment: any
            Reporter: Alex Vigdor
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.9
         Attachments: LUCENE-1824.patch

FastVectorHighlighter does not take word boundaries into consideration when 
building fragments, so that in most cases the first and last word of a fragment 
are truncated.  This makes the highlights less legible than they should be.  I 
will attach a patch to BaseFragmentBuilder that resolves this by expanding the 
start and end boundaries of the fragment to the first whitespace character on 
either side of the fragment, or the beginning or end of the source text, 
whichever comes first.  This significantly improves legibility, at the cost of 
returning a slightly larger number of characters than specified for the 
fragment size.
