Hi Eric,

I think I realize that and I am actually using this - I am using the
stemmed, cased etc. token from the stored "term vectors" and additionally I
am using the field values.
But the fields values are different from the tokens in the level of
granularity.
When I access the term vector for my field "body" I get the tokens:
"old", "man", "sea" (the rest is stopwords)
while if I use document.getter methods for my field I get the value of the
field "body", which is:
"The Old Man and the Sea"
But.. what I actually need is the original version of the tokens and not the
field value itself, in that example I need:
"Old" "Man", "Sea"
and not
"The Old Man and the Sea"
that is why I had to do my version of that filter so that during tokens
transformation (stemming, lowercasing) I store a map of the filtered term
-to- original term.

I am using Apache Mahout to read from Solr index (term vectors) and cluster
Solr documents based on these terms (tokens) and the clustering process
itself works with the stemmed, lowercased terms while at the end I want to
present the original terms - and the only way I found is by using this
stemmed term-to-original-token-map which I build during stemming.
Am I missing some existing method to access stored tokens before they get
stemmed?

Best regards,
Bogdan
