[opencms-dev] Lucene 1.4, Spanish Analyzer

[Ernesto De Santis]

Hi Stephan

Well, How to others language analyzers work?
With Stemmer's?

> Can you verify this for verbs ending -ir and -er or their inflections,
too?

Yes, all verbs in spanish ending with ar, er, OR ir (jeje, or in english,
the spanish verbs don´t end with or)
The SpanishStemmer remove the "er" and "ir" correctly.
But I try with "caer" and don´t remove "er" !!! (caer = to fall, maybe the
word "ca" is very short?)
With anothers words, like "destruir" work fine, remove "ir".

Yes, i search with my analyzer, and found the results. But if I search with
the striped word, found the document! and this word don´t exist in spanish.

I don´t use SearchHelper. I think that this don´t work for my application. I
parse the string query with
