How to declare these globally?

[ahsanbagwan]

I'm using the search store and have around 4-5 entities that have the following annotations on them:

@AnalyzerDef(name = "case_insensitive",
  tokenizer = @TokenizerDef(factory = NGramTokenizerFactory.class, params = {
    @Parameter(name = "minGramSize", value = "3"),
    @Parameter(name = "maxGramSize", value = "10")
  }),
  filters = {
    @TokenFilterDef(factory = LowerCaseFilterFactory.class)
  }
)

When I'm running the application below error is thrown. Anyway how to define this configuration globally?

... nested exception is org.hibernate.search.exception.SearchException: HSEARCH000330: Multiple analyzer definitions with the same name: 'case_insensitive'.

I found this in the Hibernate search docs:

You can use @AnalyzerDef on any:
• @Indexed entity regardless of where the analyzer is applied to;
• parent class of an @Indexed entity;
• package-info.java of a package containing an @Indexed entity.
This implies that analyzer definitions are global and their names must be unique. The
@AnalyzerDef is a repeatable annotation, so you can declare multiple analyzer definitions on
each of these types.

It sounds like you can put the @AnalyzerDef annotation in a package-info.java file (provided all your entities belong to the same package).

Thanks a bunch!
