    • getId

      public String getId()
      Description copied from class: Rule
      A string used to identify the rule in e.g. configuration files. This string is supposed to be unique and to stay the same in all upcoming versions of LanguageTool. It's supposed to contain only the characters A-Z and the underscore.
      Specified by:
      getId in class Rule
    • getDescription

      public String getDescription()

    • match

      public RuleMatch[] match(AnalyzedSentence sentence)
      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 from 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). In other words, implementations must be stateless, so that a previous call to this method has no influence on later calls.
      Specified by:
      match in class Rule
      Parameters:
      sentence - a pre-analyzed sentence
      Returns:
      an array of RuleMatch objects
