Implement IR searches

In this example we use <language>. Substitute the language you need to implement wherever you see “<language>”.

To enter language files into the IR system:

1. For English, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, and Japanese, create the files:

   • <language>.stp (stop words)
   • <language>.stm (stem dictionary)
   • <language>.suf (suffix dictionary)
   • <language>.nor (normals dictionary)

   For Chinese use the following files:

   • irlang/cma_options.utf8
   • irlang/cma/*

   For Japanese, use the following files:

   • irlang/jma_options.utf8
   • irlang/jma/*

   For Korean, use the following files:

   • irlang/kma_options.utf8
   • irlang/kma/*

   Note: These file names may vary for different languages or platforms.

2. Place those files in a unique directory. In this example, we use the directory DICT_PATH.

3. Insert the following parameters into the sm.ini file.

   ir_language:<language>

   ir_languagefiles_path:..\irlang\>

   ir_opt_path:..\irlang\cma_options.utf8 for Chinese

   or

   ir_opt_path:..\irlang\jma_options.utf8 for Japanese

   or

   ir_opt_path:..\irlang\kma_options.utf8 for Korean
