wordc

Wordc and langc can be set using SQL set parameters. Do they have an effect only when querying or can/should this be done during indexing too?

I understand wordc (word characters used to determine a hit while post processing or linear searching), but what is langc? When is it used? How is langc used in suffix processing?

Thanks!!!

They have no effect during indexing.

Langc see is used to look at the query term to determine if it is a "language" term or not, and so whether to do suffix processing. Wordc is used to look at the match to find the word boundaries when post processing if the query was "language".
