Standardization Engine Plug-ins (Repository)

You can define classes to connect to a custom standardization engine instead of the Sun Match Engine. Specify the names of the custom classes you create in the standardizer-api and standardizer-config elements of the Match Field file. Follow these guidelines when implementing custom standardization engine classes.

• Implement the com.stc.eindex.matching.StandardizerAPI interface to communicate with the standardization engine.

• Implement the com.stc.eindex.matching.StandardizerEngineConfiguration interface to retrieve any configuration values the standardization engine requires for initialization.
