IBM FileNet P8, Version 5.2.1            

Synonym input file: Format reference

The command-line synonym tool reads your specified synonym input file to set the synonyms for an IBM® Content Search Services server. Within the input file, define the words or phrases that are to be synonyms in groups. Each synonym in a group is a synonym for every other synonym in the same group. The order of the synonyms within a group has no significance.

A synonym file has the following XML format:

	<?xml  version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
	<synonymgroups  version="1.0"> 
	<synonymgroup> 
		<synonym>phrase..1</synonym> 
		<synonym>phrase..2</synonym> 
		<synonym>phrase..n</synonym> 
	</synonymgroup> 
	</synonymgroups> 

Example:

	<?xml  version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
	<synonymgroups  version="1.0"> 
		<synonymgroup> 
			<synonym>ball</synonym> 
			<synonym>globe</synonym> 
			<synonym>sphere</synonym> 
			<synonym>orb</synonym> 
		</synonymgroup> 
		<synonymgroup> 
			<synonym>International Business Machines</synonym> 
			<synonym>ibm</synonym> 
		</synonymgroup> 
	</synonymgroups> 

Two synonym groups are defined in this example. In the last group, International Business Machines is defined as a synonym for ibm and vice versa.

The following directory contains sample synonym input files: server-home/config/samples/synonyms, in which server-home is the root directory for the installed server.
