Question regarding Stemmer

[darniz <rn...@edmunds.com>]

Hi

i want to get some answers to some of my questions.
Going by the Solr Wiki There are three approaches for Stemming

Porter or Reduction Algorithm
As far as i know there is "solr.EnglishPorterFilterFactory" and there is
"solr.SnowballPorterFilterFactory" Both uses the same stemming algorithm.

Hence i assume the only difference is that SnowBall allows you to specify a
language.
is my  asssumption correct?

The other thing is that the wiki talks about "solr.PorterStemFilterFactory"
and that uses PorterStemming Algorithm but doesn't have any example
specifying how to declare a field type with that kind of stemmer.
Could any body give some snippet.


Expanssion Stemming By using SynonymFilterFactory

Thanks
