Andi Vajda commented on LUCENE-1390:
------------------------------------
Makes sense.
I did look at that block and it looked much more remote from the purpose of
this class. But you're right, many of these could be handled as well.
And I agree that they should be handled to be able to claim to be doing a
complete job.
So far, I've claimed that this class handles Latin 1 and Latin Extended A
which should cover most, if not all, european/turkish languages using latin
script and thus goes much farther than the ISOLatin1AccentFilter in that
respect.
> add ISOLatinAccentFilter and deprecate ISOLatin1AccentFilter

> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Analysis
> Environment: any
> Reporter: Andi Vajda
> Attachments: ISOLatinAccentFilter.java
>
>
> The ISOLatin1AccentFilter is removing accents from accented characters in the
> ISO Latin 1 character set.
> It does what it does and there is no bug with it.
> It would be nicer, though, if there was a more comprehensive version of this
> code that included not just ISO-Latin-1 (ISO-8859-1) but the entire Latin 1
> and Latin Extended A unicode blocks.
> See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin-1_Supplement_unicode_block
> See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin_Extended-A_unicode_block
> That way, all languages using roman characters are covered.
> A new class, ISOLatinAccentFilter is attached. It is intended to supercede
> ISOLatin1AccentFilter which should get deprecated.
