IWordBreaker Interface
[Indexing Service is no longer available for use as of Windows XP. Instead, use Windows Search.]
The IWordBreaker interface is a language-specific language resource component. The word breaker parses text and identifies individual words and phrases. The word breaker is used in background processes and must be optimized for both throughput and minimal use of resources.
