Constructor Detail

Construct

public Construct(java.lang.String construct)

Create a construct from a set of words, space separated, that are used to match words in a search, regardless of the whitespace characters between those words. In addition, non-alpha-numeric characters, if they are present in the construct, are further split into their own words.

Parameters:

construct - a set of words, space separated
