Detailed Description

Calculate query weights and build query scorers.

The purpose of Weight is to ensure searching does not modify a Query, so that a Query instance can be reused. Searcher dependent state of the query should reside in the Weight. IndexReader dependent state should reside in the Scorer.

Weight is used in the following way:

  1. A Weight is constructed by a top-level query, given a Searcher (Query#createWeight(Searcher)).
  2. The sumOfSquaredWeights() method is called on the Weight to compute the query normalization factor Similarity#queryNorm(float) of the query clauses contained in the query.
  3. The query normalization factor is passed to normalize(float). At this point the weighting is complete.
  4. A Scorer is constructed by scorer(IndexReaderPtr, bool, bool).

◆ explain()

virtual ExplanationPtr Lucene::Weight::explain ( const IndexReaderPtr reader,
int32_t  doc 
)
pure virtual

An explanation of the score computation for the named document.

Parameters
readersub-reader containing the give doc
doc
Returns
an Explanation for the score

Implemented in Lucene::SpanWeight.

◆ getClassName()

virtual String Lucene::Weight::getClassName ( )

◆ getQuery()

virtual QueryPtr Lucene::Weight::getQuery ( )
pure virtual

The query that this concerns.

Implemented in Lucene::SpanWeight.

◆ getValue()

virtual double Lucene::Weight::getValue ( )
pure virtual

The weight for this query.

Implemented in Lucene::SpanWeight.

◆ normalize()

virtual void Lucene::Weight::normalize ( double  norm)
pure virtual

Assigns the query normalization factor to this.

Implemented in Lucene::SpanWeight.

◆ scorer()

virtual ScorerPtr Lucene::Weight::scorer ( const IndexReaderPtr reader,
bool  scoreDocsInOrder,
bool  topScorer 
)
pure virtual

Returns a Scorer which scores documents in/out-of order according to scoreDocsInOrder.

NOTE: even if scoreDocsInOrder is false, it is recommended to check whether the returned Scorer indeed scores documents out of order (ie., call scoresDocsOutOfOrder()), as some Scorer implementations will always return documents in-order.

NOTE: null can be returned if no documents will be scored by this query.

Parameters
readerThe IndexReader for which to return the Scorer.
scoreDocsInOrderSpecifies whether in-order scoring of documents is required. Note that if set to false (i.e., out-of-order scoring is required), this method can return whatever scoring mode it supports, as every in-order scorer is also an out-of-order one. However, an out-of-order scorer may not support Scorer#nextDoc() and/or Scorer#advance(int), therefore it is recommended to request an in-order scorer if use of these methods is required.
topScorerIf true, Scorer#score(CollectorPtr) will be called; if false, Scorer#nextDoc() and/or Scorer#advance(int) will be called.
Returns
a Scorer which scores documents in/out-of order.

Implemented in Lucene::PayloadNearSpanWeight, and Lucene::SpanWeight.

◆ scoresDocsOutOfOrder()

virtual bool Lucene::Weight::scoresDocsOutOfOrder ( )
virtual

Returns true if this implementation scores docs only out of order. This method is used in conjunction with Collector's acceptsDocsOutOfOrder and scorer(IndexReaderPtr, bool, bool) to create a matching Scorer instance for a given Collector, or vice versa.

NOTE: the default implementation returns false, ie. the Scorer scores documents in-order.

◆ shared_from_this()

boost::shared_ptr< Weight > Lucene::Weight::shared_from_this ( )
inline

◆ sumOfSquaredWeights()

virtual double Lucene::Weight::sumOfSquaredWeights ( )
pure virtual

The sum of squared weights of contained query clauses.

Implemented in Lucene::SpanWeight.
