TRECFullTokenizer (Terrier Information Retrieval Platform 5.1 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.terrier.indexing.TRECFullTokenizer

All Implemented Interfaces:

Tokenizer
```
public class TRECFullTokenizer
extends Object
implements Tokenizer
```
This class is the tokenizer used for indexing TREC topic files. It can be used for tokenizing other topic file formats, provided that the tags to skip and to process are specified accordingly.
NB: This class only accepts A-Z a-z and 0-9 as valid character for query terms. If this restriction is too tight, please use TRECFullUTFTokenizer instead.
