In this configuration section, you define how a property has to be analyzed. If there is an analyzer configuration for a property, this analyzer is used for indexing and searching of this property. For example:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<!DOCTYPE configuration SYSTEM "http://www.exoplatform.org/dtd/indexing-configuration-1.0.dtd">

<configuration xmlns:nt="http://www.jcp.org/jcr/nt/1.0">

  <analyzers> 

        <analyzer class="org.apache.lucene.analysis.KeywordAnalyzer">

            <property>mytext</property>

        </analyzer>

        <analyzer class="org.apache.lucene.analysis.WhitespaceAnalyzer">

            <property>mytext2</property>

        </analyzer>

  </analyzers> 

</configuration>

The configuration above means that the property "mytext" for the entire workspace is indexed (and searched) with the Lucene KeywordAnalyzer, and property "mytext2" with the WhitespaceAnalyzer. Using different analyzers for different languages is particularly useful.

The WhitespaceAnalyzer tokenizes a property, the KeywordAnalyzer takes the property as a whole.
