Hello,
Having in mind the ticket UIMA-6092, we are looking for ways to improve
the Ruta dictionary lookup on wordlists and -tables. This would target
primarily the /MARKFAST/, /MARKTABLE /and /TRIE /actions. One option to
make the lookup more robust would be to set the default value of the
existing parameter /ignoreWS /(i.e. ignore whitespaces) to *true
*(currently it is *false*).
Ignoring the whitespaces, however, would enable matching over
whitespaces as well (if there are any), by default. This might have
undesired side-effects for those who use dictionary lookup extensively
in production. Therefore, before making any changes, if it may concern
you in any way, feel free to object against doing that.
Regards,
Viorel Morari
