{
    CHUNK_NO_BREAK = 0,
    CHUNK_EOW      = 1,
    CHUNK_EOS      = 2,
    CHUNK_EOP      = 3,
    CHUNK_EOC      = 4
} CHUNK_BREAKTYPE;
 

Elements

CHUNK_NO_BREAK

No break will be placed between the current chunk and the previous chunk. The chunks will be glued together.

CHUNK_EOW

A word break will be placed between this chunk and the previous chunk that had the same attribute. Use of CHUNK_EOW should be minimized because the choice of word breaks is language dependent, so determining word breaks is best left to the search engine).

CHUNK_EOS

A sentence break will be placed between this chunk and the previous chunk that had the same attribute.

CHUNK_EOP

A paragraph break will be placed between this chunk and the previous chunk that had the same attribute.

CHUNK_EOC

A chapter break will be placed between this chunk and the previous chunk that had the same attribute.

Remarks

A change in attributes implies a word, sentence, paragraph, or chapter break.
