Thanks for the info on this. Since I should use the search function that returns TopDocs, I was wondering what was the proper way to create a Weight object to pass into the search function.
There are 2 functions in the Query class that I see: createWeight and weight, which both return a Weight object. Is there a difference between these 2, and which one should I use? Once I have a Weight object named, for example, w, do I just use the search function as this? IndexSearcher is = new IndexSearcher(fsDir); Query q = ... Weight w = q.createWeight(is); or Weight w = q.weight(is); is.search(w, null, 100); // no filter, want top 100 docs For the case with a filter, would it be: is.search(w, f, 100); Thanks Gary -----Original Message----- From: Chris Hostetter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, September 16, 2006 07:22 AM To: java-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: RE: best way to get specific results : IndexSearcher.search(Query, Filter) method). Im just wrapping a : ConstantScoreQuery around the filter, and passing it into the : IndexSearcher.search(Query) method to return a Hits object. Then Im : asking for the 500th to 550th doc in the Hits object. : : Would such a case still cause Hits to rexecute over and over again on : higher numbered results? Or is this different because Im using a yes... it doesn't matter what type of query you use ... Hits is not a good idea if you wnat results really far down the list. -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
