[Xapian-devel] Bitsize project: Krovetz Stemmer

[Richhiey Thomas]

Hello,
Yes James, will load a required dictionary according to the requirements of
the program. I have also structured the program accordingly so it shouldn't
be a problem :)
Also I did not mean a different class for every exception. Im using an
unordered_map to map the word against its dictionary entry for which I have
created a DictEntry class. It stores the word along with pointing out
whether it is an exception or not. Should work well right?
Also once I'm done, how can I have one of you review the code and help me
proceed?
Thanks.
