## org.apache.lucene.analysis.tokenattributes
Interface PositionLengthAttribute

All Superinterfaces:
  Attribute

All Known Implementing Classes:
  PositionLengthAttributeImpl, Token

    public interface PositionLengthAttribute

extends Attribute

Determines how many positions this token spans. Very few analyzer components actually produce this attribute, and indexing ignores it, but it's useful to express the graph structure naturally produced by decompounding, word splitting/joining, synonym filtering, etc.

NOTE: this is optional, and most analyzers don't change the default value (1).

Method Summary
`int` | `getPositionLength()` Returns the position length of this Token.
`void` | `setPositionLength(int positionLength)` Set the position length of this Token.
