The JavaHelp system full-text search database is constructed using the jhindexer command. The jhindexer command parses HTML topic files according to each file's character encoding. If the document format (HTML, GIF, text) supports a language attribute, the document text is tokenized according to the language attributes for its elements.
By default, jhindexer assumes the default locale--use the locale option to specify the locale directly to the jhindexer command. The syntax for the locale option is:
jhindexer -locale language_country_variant
The argument to the option is the name of the locale as
described in java.util.Locale, for example,
en_US (English, United States) or
en_US_WIN (English, United States, Windows
variant).
