## Interface FlagsAttribute

- All Superinterfaces:
    Attribute
  All Known Implementing Classes:
    FlagsAttributeImpl

      public interface FlagsAttribute
      extends Attribute

  This attribute can be used to pass different flags down the `Tokenizer` chain, e.g. from one TokenFilter to another one.

  This is completely distinct from `TypeAttribute`, although they do share similar purposes. The flags can be used to encode information about the token for use by other `TokenFilter`s.

  WARNING: This API is experimental and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.
    While we think this is here to stay, we may want to change it to be a long.
