match

public RuleMatch[] match(AnalyzedSentence sentenceObj)
                  throws IOException

Description copied from class: Rule

Check whether the given sentence matches this error rule, i.e. whether it contains the error detected by this rule. Note that the order in which this method is called is not always guaranteed, i.e. the sentence order in the text may be different than the order in which you get the sentences (this may be the case when LanguageTool is used as a LibreOffice/OpenOffice add-on, for example).

Specified by:

match in interface RuleMatcher

Overrides:

match in class AbstractPatternRule

Parameters:

sentenceObj - a pre-analyzed sentence

Returns:

an array of RuleMatch objects

Throws:

IOException

estimateContextForSureMatch

public int estimateContextForSureMatch()

Description copied from class: Rule

A number that estimates how many words there must be after a match before we can be (relatively) sure the match is valid. This is useful for check-as-you-type, where a match might occur and the word that gets typed next makes the match disappear (something one would obviously like to avoid). Note: this may over-estimate the real context size. Returns -1 when the sentence needs to end to be sure there's a match.

Overrides:

estimateContextForSureMatch in class Rule

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class AbstractPatternRule
