Methods

The IWordSink interface has these methods.

Method Description
EndAltPhrase Indicates the end of the final phrase in a sequence of alternative phrases that a word breaker generates during index time.

PutBreak Puts a break after the preceding word.

Remarks

Windows Search creates and initializes instances of the IWordSink object. The IWordSink object receives the fQuery parameter during initialization and uses this parameter to determine the word-breaking context in which the object is used.

IWordBreaker implementations receive a pointer to the IWordSink object in the IWordBreaker::BreakText method.
