- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### TokenizerFactory

          protected TokenizerFactory(Map<String,String> args)

      Initialize this factory via a set of key-value pairs.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### forName

          public static TokenizerFactory forName(String name,
                                                 Map<String,String> args)

      looks up a tokenizer by name from context classpath

    - #### lookupClass

          public static Class<? extends TokenizerFactory> lookupClass(String name)

      looks up a tokenizer class by name from context classpath

    - #### availableTokenizers

          public static Set<String> availableTokenizers()

      returns a list of all available tokenizer names from context classpath

    - #### reloadTokenizers

          public static void reloadTokenizers(ClassLoader classloader)

      Reloads the factory list from the given `ClassLoader`. Changes to the factories are visible after the method ends, all iterators (`availableTokenizers()`,...) stay consistent.

      NOTE: Only new factories are added, existing ones are never removed or replaced.

      This method is expensive and should only be called for discovery of new factories on the given classpath/classloader!

    - #### create

          public final Tokenizer create()

      Creates a TokenStream of the specified input using the default attribute factory.

    - #### create

          public abstract Tokenizer create(AttributeFactory factory)

      Creates a TokenStream of the specified input using the given AttributeFactory
