Methods
The IWordSink interface has these methods.
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| EndAltPhrase | Indicates the end of the final phrase in a sequence of alternative phrases that a word breaker generates during index time. |
| PutAltWord | Puts an alternative word and its position in the WordSink. |
| PutBreak | Puts a break after the preceding word. |

| StartAltPhrase | Indicates the boundary between phrases in a sequence of alternative phrases that a word breaker generates during index time. |
Remarks
Indexing Service creates and initializes instances of the WordSink object. The WordSink receives the fQuery parameter during initialization and uses this parameter to determine the word-breaking context in which the object is used.
IWordBreaker implementations receive a pointer to the WordSink object in the BreakText method.
