Constructor Detail

LexiconOutputStream

public LexiconOutputStream()

A default constructor.

LexiconOutputStream

public LexiconOutputStream(java.lang.String filename)

A constructor given the filename.

Parameters:

filename - java.lang.String the name of the lexicon file.

LexiconOutputStream

public LexiconOutputStream(java.io.File file)

A constructor given the filename.

Parameters:

file - java.io.File the name of the lexicon file.

LexiconOutputStream

public LexiconOutputStream(java.lang.String path,
                           java.lang.String prefix)

A constructor for a LexiconOutputStream given the index path and prefix

Parameters:

path - String the path to the index

prefix - String the prefix of the filenames in the index

Method Detail

close

public void close()

Closes the lexicon stream.

Specified by:

close in interface Closeable

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs while closing the stream.

writeNextEntry

public int writeNextEntry(java.lang.String _term,
                          int _termId,
                          int _documentFrequency,
                          int _termFrequency,
                          long _endOffset,
                          byte _endBitOffset)
                   throws java.io.IOException

Writes a lexicon entry.

Parameters:

_term - the string representation of the term

_termId - the terms integer identifier

_documentFrequency - the term's document frequency in the collection

_termFrequency - the term's frequency in the collection

_endOffset - the term's ending byte offset in the inverted file

_endBitOffset - the term's ending byte bit-offset in the inverted file

Returns:

the number of bytes written to the file.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs

writeNextEntry

public int writeNextEntry(byte[] _term,
                          int _termId,
                          int _documentFrequency,
                          int _termFrequency,
                          long _endOffset,
                          byte _endBitOffset)
                   throws java.io.IOException

Writes a lexicon entry.

Parameters:

_term - the byte[] representation of the term. Using this format means that the term does not have to be decoded and recoded every time.

_termId - the terms integer identifier

_documentFrequency - the term's document frequency in the collection

_termFrequency - the term's frequency in the collection

_endOffset - the term's ending byte offset in the inverted file

_endBitOffset - the term's ending byte bit-offset in the inverted file

Returns:

the number of bytes written.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs

getNumberOfPointersWritten

public long getNumberOfPointersWritten()

Returns the number of pointers there would be in an inverted index built using this lexicon. This is equal to the sum of the Nts written to this lexicon output stream.

getNumberOfTokensWritten

public long getNumberOfTokensWritten()

Returns the number of tokens there are in the entire collection represented by this lexicon. This is equal to the sum of the TFs written to this lexicon output stream.

getNumberOfTermsWritten

public int getNumberOfTermsWritten()

setEndBitOffset

public void setEndBitOffset(byte _endBitOffset)

Deprecated.

Sets the bit offset in the last byte of the term's entry in the inverted file.

Parameters:

_endBitOffset - byte the bit offset in the last byte of the term's entry in the inverted file.

setEndOffset

public void setEndOffset(long _endOffset)

Deprecated.

Sets the ending offset of the term's entry in the inverted file.

Parameters:

_endOffset - long The ending byte of the term's entry in the inverted file.

setNt

public void setNt(int _Nt)

Deprecated.

Sets the document frequency for the given term.

Parameters:

_Nt - int The document frequency for the given term.

setTerm

public void setTerm(java.lang.String _term)

Deprecated.

Sets the string representation of the term.

Parameters:

_term - java.lang.String The string representation of the seeked term.

setTermId

public void setTermId(int _termId)

Deprecated.

Sets the term's id.

Parameters:

_termId - int the term's identifier.

setTF

public void setTF(int _termFrequency)

Deprecated.

Sets the term frequency for the already found term.

Parameters:

_termFrequency - int The term frequency in the collection.
