Thank you very much for the suggestions, maybe what I was trying is wrong. I'll try to use the FunctionQuery; remember I had the patch in Search more or less working if one day you might need it.
BTW I've just realized the Discriminator interface is having a nasty typo in the public api method name : "getAnanyzerDefinitionName" instead of getAnalyzerDefinitionName and the bug is repeated in all documentation. fixing for 3.2? 2009/4/30 Emmanuel Bernard <emman...@hibernate.org>: > > On Apr 30, 2009, at 14:11, Sanne Grinovero wrote: > >> 2009/4/30 Emmanuel Bernard <emman...@hibernate.org>: >>> >>> On Apr 30, 2009, at 13:01, Sanne Grinovero wrote: >>> >>>> Basically I need a function to convert a user-proposed term to a >>>> series of proposals >>>> of "similar" terms but giving a higher rank to the terms I'd prefer >>>> him to choose as they >>>> are the correct names used in my domain. >>>> You can think of it as a spellchecker/dictionary (using synonyms >>>> toos), but giving priority to >>>> a selected form of each term, known as the "root", or the standard >>>> form in the domain. >>> >>> Have you considered indexing the same property twice: >>> - once unaltered and giving it a high boost >>> - once with synonyms and giving it a low boost >>> >>> That's how I would sove your use case personally. >>> >> >> That would be clever if I had only two levels of boost, but it's not the >> case. >> Also most properties are being indexed already in 5+n different fields, >> being n the number of supported languages for snowball (currently 15, >> so the next step >> will be to try the programmatic configuration to remove all this >> annotations). >> So adding more fields will drammatically increase the number of them >> (number of boost >> levels * (5 + number of enabled stemmers)) > > number of boost? the level of boost is defined at query time so I guess > there would be the clean data and the synonym data ie 2 * (5 + languages) > right? > > >> >> and make the index size unnecessarily large, and I'm not solving the >> time-fading requirement. > > Well yes but dynamic boosting as defined by you does not solve the time > fading requirement either right? > FunctionQuery does (or can) > >> >> My BI suite is returning some nice float which I'm storing in the >> entity itself as a property, >> it would make my life a lot easier if I could just use this float >> value as the document boost. > > I'd rather see something more generic like the @AnalyzerDiscriminator > approach we've used if really really you want to set that at indexing time. > _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
