[I'm gathering that the consensus on the PorterStemmer is to deprecate
the existing one in favour of using Snowball, so I've dropped the issue.]
Another questio: the Lucene FAQ includes this question:
35. How can I show excerpts with the hit results? How about
highlighting the matched words?
http://lucene.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/faq/faqmanager.cgi?file=chapter.search&toc=faq#q35
I'm interested in showing excerpts if the amount of effort isn't
enormous, and while I understand that for each document type the
results will be different, what I'm wondering is how to locate the
offsets within each search result that indicate the locations of
each hit within the searched document, so that I won't have to
duplicate Lucene's existing efforts in creating the excerpt.
Where might I find in the Lucene API or code the hooks I need?
Is this information readily available, or is it buried within
the engine or the index?
Sorry if this is obvious -- I couldn't locate it. And thanks
very much for any assistance (and no rush at all...).
