All Implemented Interfaces:
  Closeable

Direct Known Subclasses:
  LengthFilter, StopFilter, TypeTokenFilter

    public abstract class FilteringTokenFilter

extends TokenFilter

Abstract base class for TokenFilters that may remove tokens. You have to implement `accept()` and return a boolean if the current token should be preserved. `incrementToken()` uses this method to decide if a token should be passed to the caller.

Method Summary
`protected abstract boolean` | `accept()` Override this method and return if the current input token should be returned by `incrementToken()`.
`boolean` | `getEnablePositionIncrements()`
`boolean` | `incrementToken()` Consumers (i.e., `IndexWriter`) use this method to advance the stream to the next token.
`void` | `reset()` Reset the filter as well as the input TokenStream.
`void` | `setEnablePositionIncrements(boolean enable)` If `true`, this TokenFilter will preserve positions of the incoming tokens (ie, accumulate and set position increments of the removed tokens).

Constructor Detail

### FilteringTokenFilter

    public FilteringTokenFilter(boolean enablePositionIncrements,
                                TokenStream input)

Method Detail

### accept

    protected abstract boolean accept()
                               throws IOException

  Override this method and return if the current input token should be returned by `incrementToken()`.

  Throws:
    `IOException`

### incrementToken

    public final boolean incrementToken()
                                 throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `TokenStream`
  Consumers (i.e., `IndexWriter`) use this method to advance the stream to the next token. Implementing classes must implement this method and update the appropriate `AttributeImpl`s with the attributes of the next token.

  The producer must make no assumptions about the attributes after the method has been returned: the caller may arbitrarily change it. If the producer needs to preserve the state for subsequent calls, it can use `AttributeSource.captureState()` to create a copy of the current attribute state.

  This method is called for every token of a document, so an efficient implementation is crucial for good performance. To avoid calls to `AttributeSource.addAttribute(Class)` and `AttributeSource.getAttribute(Class)`, references to all `AttributeImpl`s that this stream uses should be retrieved during instantiation.

  To ensure that filters and consumers know which attributes are available, the attributes must be added during instantiation. Filters and consumers are not required to check for availability of attributes in `TokenStream.incrementToken()`.

  Specified by:
    `incrementToken` in class `TokenStream`
  Returns:
    false for end of stream; true otherwise
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### reset

    public void reset()
               throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `TokenFilter`
  Reset the filter as well as the input TokenStream.

  Overrides:
    `reset` in class `TokenFilter`
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### getEnablePositionIncrements

    public boolean getEnablePositionIncrements()

  See Also:
    `setEnablePositionIncrements(boolean)`

### setEnablePositionIncrements

    public void setEnablePositionIncrements(boolean enable)

  If `true`, this TokenFilter will preserve positions of the incoming tokens (ie, accumulate and set position increments of the removed tokens). Generally, `true` is best as it does not lose information (positions of the original tokens) during indexing.

  When set, when a token is stopped (omitted), the position increment of the following token is incremented.

  NOTE: be sure to also set `QueryParser.setEnablePositionIncrements(boolean)` if you use QueryParser to create queries.
