[jira] [Resolved] (LUCENE-6874) WhitespaceTokenizer should tokenize on NBSP

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6874?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Uwe Schindler resolved LUCENE-6874.
-----------------------------------
       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 5.4
                   Trunk

Thank for the fruitful discussions! I hope [~steve_rowe] is not unhappy because we did not use jflex for this simple case and instead use Unicode data with the already existing CharTokenizer.

> WhitespaceTokenizer uses [Character.isWhitespace |http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/lang/Character.html#isWhitespace-int-] to decide what is whitespace.  Here's a pertinent excerpt:
> bq. It is a Unicode space character (SPACE_SEPARATOR, LINE_SEPARATOR, or PARAGRAPH_SEPARATOR) but is not also a non-breaking space ('\u00A0', '\u2007', '\u202F')
> Perhaps Character.isWhitespace should have been called isLineBreakableWhitespace?
> I think WhitespaceTokenizer should tokenize on this.  I am aware it's easy to work around but why leave this trap in by default?
