APICP Metamorph Control Parameters Summary

You can modify these APICP settings by adjusting these flags to modify the Metamorph control parameters below. These are covered elsewhere in relation to their use in Texis, Vortex, or the Metamorph API; see the appropriate manual. The settings are:

suffixproc

: Whether to do suffix processing or not.

prefixproc

: Whether to do suffix processing or not.

rebuild

: Whether to do word rebuilding.

incsd

: Include start delimiters in hits.

inced

: Include end delimiters in hits.

withinproc

: Whether to respect the within (w/) operator.

minwordlen

: Minimum word length for morpheme processing.

intersects

: Default number of intersections (if no @).

see

: Whether to look up ``see also'' references.

keepeqvs

: Whether to keep equivalences for words/phrases.

keepnoise

: Whether to keep noise words in the query.

sdexp

: Default start delimiter REX expression.

edexp

: Default end delimiter REX expression.

eqprefix

: Main equivalence file name.

ueqprefix

: User equivalence file name.

suffix

: Suffix list for suffix processing during search.

suffixeq

: Suffix list for suffix processing during equivalence lookup.

prefix

: Prefix list for prefix processing during search.

noise

: Noise word list.

defaults

: Restore defaults for all APICP settings.

Note that the default values for these (and other) settings may vary between Vortex, the Search Appliance, tsql and the Metamorph API. See the section on ``Differences Between Vortex, tsql and Metamorph API'' in the Vortex manual for a list of differences.

The easiest way to make use of these settings is in a Vortex script, eg.:

<apicp suffixproc 1>

In tsql, they can be altered with a SQL set statement:

tsql "set suffixproc=1; select ..."

The various C APIs have their own calls, eg. n_setsuffixproc().
