Hi,

In moses/parameters/ReportingOptions.cpp, the following code was added by
Uli in commit 69e5a1cc152de40 about a year ago:


    m = param.find("align");
    if (m != param.end() && Scan<bool>(xmlrpc_c::value_string(m->second)))
      ReportSegmentation = 1;


This is relevant when using XML-RPC requests via mosesserver, and it turns
on ReportSegmentation if the XML response includes segmentation. Most of
the time this would be superfluous, since the reason that the XML response
contains segmentation is typically because ReportSegmentation was already
set to 1 in the moses server config file.

I'm interested in re-enabling the moses server code that allows this to
alternatively be set via XML-RPC request, but I don't want
ReportSegmentation turned on in this case. The reason is that I want the
segmentation information, but I don't want the returned hypothesis to
include the segmentation in the reported hypothesis string. If
ReportSegmentation is set to 1, then that will happen.

My question is, is it OK to delete or comment out this block of code?

If someone has a good reason why it's there, that's fine. But I can't seem
to find one.

Thanks,
Lane
