    New TokenStream API
    
+
    
+	With Lucene 2.9 we introduce a new TokenStream API. The old API used to produce Tokens. A Token
+	has getter and setter methods for different properties like positionIncrement and termText.
+	While this approach was sufficient for the default indexing format, it is not versatile enough for
+	Flexible Indexing, a term which summarizes the effort of making the Lucene indexer pluggable and extensible for custom
+	index formats.
+
    
+
    
+A fully customizable indexer means that users will be able to store custom data structures on disk. Therefore an API
+is necessary that can transport custom types of data from the documents to the indexer.
+
    
+
    Attribute and AttributeSource
     
+Lucene 2.9 therefore introduces a new pair of classes called {@link org.apache.lucene.util.Attribute} and
+{@link org.apache.lucene.util.AttributeSource}. An Attribute serves as a
+particular piece of information about a text token. For example, {@link org.apache.lucene.analysis.tokenattributes.TermAttribute}
+ contains the term text of a token, and {@link org.apache.lucene.analysis.tokenattributes.OffsetAttribute} contains the start and end character offsets of a token.
+An AttributeSource is a collection of Attributes with a restriction: there may be only one instance of each attribute type. TokenStream now extends AttributeSource, which
+means that one can add Attributes to a TokenStream. Since TokenFilter extends TokenStream, all filters are also
+AttributeSources.
+
    
+	Lucene now provides six Attributes out of the box, which replace the variables the Token class has:
+	
      
+	  
    • {@link org.apache.lucene.analysis.tokenattributes.TermAttribute}
      The term text of a token.
      • 
+  	  
    • {@link org.apache.lucene.analysis.tokenattributes.OffsetAttribute}
      The start and end offset of token in characters.
      • 
+	  
    • {@link org.apache.lucene.analysis.tokenattributes.PositionIncrementAttribute}
      See above for detailed information about position increment.
      • 
+	  
    • {@link org.apache.lucene.analysis.tokenattributes.PayloadAttribute}
      The payload that a Token can optionally have.
      • 
+	  
    • {@link org.apache.lucene.analysis.tokenattributes.TypeAttribute}
      The type of the token. Default is 'word'.
      • 
+	  
    • {@link org.apache.lucene.analysis.tokenattributes.FlagsAttribute}
      Optional flags a token can have.
      • 
+	
    
+
    
+
    Using the new TokenStream API
    
+There are a few important things to know in order to use the new API efficiently which are summarized here. You may want
+to walk through the example below first and come back to this section afterwards.
+
    1. 
+Please keep in mind that an AttributeSource can only have one instance of a particular Attribute. Furthermore, if 
+a chain of a TokenStream and multiple TokenFilters is used, then all TokenFilters in that chain share the Attributes
+with the TokenStream.
+
      2. 
+
      
+
    2. 
+Attribute instances are reused for all tokens of a document. Thus, a TokenStream/-Filter needs to update
+the appropriate Attribute(s) in incrementToken(). The consumer, commonly the Lucene indexer, consumes the data in the
+Attributes and then calls incrementToken() again until it retuns false, which indicates that the end of the stream
+was reached. This means that in each call of incrementToken() a TokenStream/-Filter can safely overwrite the data in
+the Attribute instances.
+
      3. 
+
      
+
    3. 
+For performance reasons a TokenStream/-Filter should add/get Attributes during instantiation; i.e., create an attribute in the
+constructor and store references to it in an instance variable.  Using an instance variable instead of calling addAttribute()/getAttribute() 
+in incrementToken() will avoid expensive casting and attribute lookups for every token in the document.
+
      4. 
+
      
+
    4. 
+All methods in AttributeSource are idempotent, which means calling them multiple times always yields the same
+result. This is especially important to know for addAttribute(). The method takes the type (Class)
+of an Attribute as an argument and returns an instance. If an Attribute of the same type was previously added, then
+the already existing instance is returned, otherwise a new instance is created and returned. Therefore TokenStreams/-Filters
+can safely call addAttribute() with the same Attribute type multiple times.
+
    
+
    Example
    
+In this example we will create a WhiteSpaceTokenizer and use a LengthFilter to suppress all words that only
+have two or less characters. The LengthFilter is part of the Lucene core and its implementation will be explained
+here to illustrate the usage of the new TokenStream API.
    
+Then we will develop a custom Attribute, a PartOfSpeechAttribute, and add another filter to the chain which
+utilizes the new custom attribute, and call it PartOfSpeechTaggingFilter.
+
    Whitespace tokenization
    
+
    +public class MyAnalyzer extends Analyzer {
+
+  public TokenStream tokenStream(String fieldName, Reader reader) {
+    TokenStream stream = new WhitespaceTokenizer(reader);
+    return stream;
+  }
+  
+  public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
+    // text to tokenize
+    final String text = "This is a demo of the new TokenStream API";
+    
+    MyAnalyzer analyzer = new MyAnalyzer();
+    TokenStream stream = analyzer.tokenStream("field", new StringReader(text));
+    
+    // get the TermAttribute from the TokenStream
+    TermAttribute termAtt = (TermAttribute) stream.getAttribute(TermAttribute.class);
+    
+    // print all tokens until stream is exhausted
+    while (stream.incrementToken()) {
+      System.out.println(termAtt.term());
+    }
+  }
+}
+
    
+In this easy example a simple white space tokenization is performed. In main() a loop consumes the stream and
+prints the term text of the tokens by accessing the TermAttribute that the WhitespaceTokenizer provides. 
+Here is the output:
+
    +This
+is
+a
+demo
+of
+the
+new
+TokenStream
+API
+
    
+
    Adding a LengthFilter
    
+We want to suppress all tokens that have 2 or less characters. We can do that easily by adding a LengthFilter 
+to the chain. Only the tokenStream() method in our analyzer needs to be changed:
+
    +  public TokenStream tokenStream(String fieldName, Reader reader) {
+    TokenStream stream = new WhitespaceTokenizer(reader);
+    stream = new LengthFilter(stream, 3, Integer.MAX_VALUE);
+    return stream;
+  }
+
    
+Note how now only words with 3 or more characters are contained in the output:
+
    +This
+demo
+the
+new
+TokenStream
+API
+
    
+Now let's take a look how the LengthFilter is implemented (it is part of Lucene's core):
+
    +public final class LengthFilter extends TokenFilter {
+
+  final int min;
+  final int max;
+  
+  private TermAttribute termAtt;
+
+  /**
+   * Build a filter that removes words that are too long or too
+   * short from the text.
+   */
+  public LengthFilter(TokenStream in, int min, int max)
+  {
+    super(in);
+    this.min = min;
+    this.max = max;
+    termAtt = (TermAttribute) addAttribute(TermAttribute.class);
+  }
+  
+  /**
+   * Returns the next input Token whose term() is the right len
+   */
+  public final boolean incrementToken() throws IOException
+  {
+    assert termAtt != null;
+    // return the first non-stop word found
+    while (input.incrementToken()) {
+      int len = termAtt.termLength();
+      if (len >= min && len <= max) {
+          return true;
+      }
+      // note: else we ignore it but should we index each part of it?
+    }
+    // reached EOS -- return null
+    return false;
+  }
+}
+
    
+The TermAttribute is added in the constructor and stored in the instance variable termAtt.
+Remember that there can only be a single instance of TermAttribute in the chain, so in our example the 
+addAttribute() call in LengthFilter returns the TermAttribute that the WhitespaceTokenizer already added. The tokens
+are retrieved from the input stream in the incrementToken() method. By looking at the term text
+in the TermAttribute the length of the term can be determined and too short or too long tokens are skipped. 
+Note how incrementToken() can efficiently access the instance variable; no attribute lookup or downcasting
+is neccessary. The same is true for the consumer, which can simply use local references to the Attributes.
+
    Adding a custom Attribute
    
+Now we're going to implement our own custom Attribute for part-of-speech tagging and call it consequently 
+PartOfSpeechAttribute:
+
    +  public static enum PartOfSpeech {
+    Noun, Verb, Adjective, Adverb, Pronoun, Preposition, Conjunction, Article, Unknown
+  }
+  
+  public static final class PartOfSpeechAttribute extends Attribute {
+    
+    private PartOfSpeech pos = PartOfSpeech.Unknown;
+    
+    public void setPartOfSpeech(PartOfSpeech pos) {
+      this.pos = pos;
+    }
+    
+    public PartOfSpeech getPartOfSpeech() {
+      return pos;
+    }
+
+    public void clear() {
+      pos = PartOfSpeech.Unknown;
+    }
+
+    public void copyTo(Attribute target) {
+      ((PartOfSpeechAttribute) target).pos = pos;
+    }
+
+    public boolean equals(Object other) {
+      if (other == this) {
+        return true;
+      }
+      
+      if (other instanceof PartOfSpeechAttribute) {
+        return pos == ((PartOfSpeechAttribute) other).pos;
+      }
+   
+      return false;
+    }
+
+    public int hashCode() {
+      return pos.ordinal();
+    }
+
+    public String toString() {
+      return "PartOfSpeech=" + pos;
+    }
+  }
+
    
+This is a simple Attribute that has only a single variable that stores the part-of-speech of a token. It extends the
+new Attribute class and therefore implements its abstract methods clear(), copyTo(), equals(), hashCode(), toString().
+Now we need a TokenFilter that can set this new PartOfSpeechAttribute for each token. In this example we show a very naive filter
+that tags every word with a leading upper-case letter as a 'Noun' and all other words as 'Unknown'.
+
    +  public static class PartOfSpeechTaggingFilter extends TokenFilter {
+    PartOfSpeechAttribute posAtt;
+    TermAttribute termAtt;
+    
+    protected PartOfSpeechTaggingFilter(TokenStream input) {
+      super(input);
+      posAtt = (PartOfSpeechAttribute) addAttribute(PartOfSpeechAttribute.class);
+      termAtt = (TermAttribute) addAttribute(TermAttribute.class);
+    }
+    
+    public boolean incrementToken() throws IOException {
+      if (!input.incrementToken()) {return false;}
+      posAtt.setPartOfSpeech(determinePOS(termAtt.termBuffer(), 0, termAtt.termLength()));
+      return true;
+    }
+    
+    // determine the part of speech for the given term
+    protected PartOfSpeech determinePOS(char[] term, int offset, int length) {
+      // naive implementation that tags every uppercased word as noun
+      if (length > 0 && Character.isUpperCase(term[0])) {
+        return PartOfSpeech.Noun;
+      }
+      return PartOfSpeech.Unknown;
+    }
+  }
+
    
+Just like the LengthFilter, this new filter accesses the attributes it needs in the constructor and
+stores references in instance variables. Now we need to add the filter to the chain:
+
    +  public TokenStream tokenStream(String fieldName, Reader reader) {
+    TokenStream stream = new WhitespaceTokenizer(reader);
+    stream = new LengthFilter(stream, 3, Integer.MAX_VALUE);
+    stream = new PartOfSpeechTaggingFilter(stream);
+    return stream;
+  }
+
    
+Now let's look at the output:
+
    +This
+demo
+the
+new
+TokenStream
+API
+
    
+Apparently it hasn't changed, which shows that adding a custom attribute to a TokenStream/Filter chain does not
+affect any existing consumers, simply because they don't know the new Attribute. Now let's change the consumer
+to make use of the new PartOfSpeechAttribute and print it out:
+
    +  public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
+    // text to tokenize
+    final String text = "This is a demo of the new TokenStream API";
+    
+    MyAnalyzer analyzer = new MyAnalyzer();
+    TokenStream stream = analyzer.tokenStream("field", new StringReader(text));
+    
+    // get the TermAttribute from the TokenStream
+    TermAttribute termAtt = (TermAttribute) stream.getAttribute(TermAttribute.class);
+    
+    // get the PartOfSpeechAttribute from the TokenStream
+    PartOfSpeechAttribute posAtt = (PartOfSpeechAttribute) stream.getAttribute(PartOfSpeechAttribute.class);
+    
+    // print all tokens until stream is exhausted
+    while (stream.incrementToken()) {
+      System.out.println(termAtt.term() + ": " + posAtt.getPartOfSpeech());
+    }
+  }
+
    
+The change that was made is to get the PartOfSpeechAttribute from the TokenStream and print out its contents in
+the while loop that consumes the stream. Here is the new output:
+
    +This: Noun
+demo: Unknown
+the: Unknown
+new: Unknown
+TokenStream: Noun
+API: Noun
+
    
+Each word is now followed by its assigned PartOfSpeech tag. Of course this is a naive 
+part-of-speech tagging. The word 'This' should not even be tagged as noun; it is only spelled capitalized because it
+is the first word of a sentence. Actually this is a good opportunity for an excerise. To practice the usage of the new
+API the reader could now write an Attribute and TokenFilter that can specify for each word if it was the first token
+of a sentence or not. Then the PartOfSpeechTaggingFilter can make use of this knowledge and only tag capitalized words
+as nouns if not the first word of a sentence (we know, this is still not a correct behavior, but hey, it's a good exercise). 
+As a small hint, this is how the new Attribute class could begin:
+
    +  public class FirstTokenOfSentenceAttribute extends Attribute {
+    
+    private boolean firstToken;
+    
+    public void setFirstToken(boolean firstToken) {
+      this.firstToken = firstToken;
+    }
+    
+    public boolean getFirstToken() {
+      return firstToken;
+    }
+
+    public void clear() {
+      firstToken = false;
+    }
+
+  ...
+
