Method Detail

unloadDocument

void unloadDocument(Document doc)

Unloads the document from memory. Only needed if memory preservation is an issue. Only supported for Corpus which is stored in a Datastore. To get this document back in memory, use get() on Corpus or if you have its persistent ID, request it from the Factory.

Transient Corpus objects do nothing, because there would be no way to get the document back again afterwards.

Parameters:

doc - Document to be unloaded from memory.

isDocumentLoaded

boolean isDocumentLoaded(int index)

This method returns true when the document is already loaded in memory. The transient corpora will always return true as they can only contain documents that are present in the memory.

removeCorpusListener

void removeCorpusListener(CorpusListener l)

Removes one of the listeners registered with this corpus.

Parameters:

l - the listener to be removed.

addCorpusListener

void addCorpusListener(CorpusListener l)

Registers a new CorpusListener with this corpus.

Parameters:

l - the listener to be added.
