Hi I am still looking at "synonyms", and the possibility of having synonyms loaded via another mechanism than reading from a text file.
A few questions: Does anyone know why, in SynonymFilterFactory, the method "parseRules" is package private (actually I'm not sure of the terminology - what I mean is, I can't call this method from outside the package, so I can't use this method if I extend SynonymFilterFactory). And why are "parseRules" and several other methods static? Also, where does the "ResourceLoader" supplied to the "inform" method come from? Or, who is it that instantiates the resource-loader and the filter-factory, and calls the "inform" method. Can I influence this at all - for instance, can I inject my own "ResourceLoader" into this call? Thanks very much for your help,. Peter
