[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-4019) Parsing Hunspell affix rules
without regexp condition
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4019?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13260566#comment-13260566 ]
Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-4019:
-------------------------------------
I dont know if there is a real spec, more just what hunspell allows.
Furthermore i think some of these dictionaries are actually in ispell/myspell format
and hunspell is actually backwards compatible with them?
as far as a "spec" for all of these, good luck :)
when i was looking at this I looked at stuff like:
* http://pwet.fr/man/linux/fichiers_speciaux/hunspell
* http://www.openoffice.org/lingucomponent/affix.readme

> Key: LUCENE-4019
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4019
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: modules/analysis
> Affects Versions: 3.6
> Reporter: Luca Cavanna
>
> We found out that some recent Dutch hunspell dictionaries contain suffix or prefix rules like the following:
> {code}
> SFX Na N 1
> SFX Na 0 ste
> {code}
> The rule on the second line doesn't contain the 5th parameter, which should be the condition (a regexp usually). You can usually see a '.' as condition, meaning always (for every character). As explained in LUCENE-3976 the readAffix method throws error. I wonder if we should treat the missing value as a kind of default value, like '.'. On the other hand I haven't found any information about this within the spec. Any thoughts?
