: I added a single document with two fields, one with the default boost and : another with a boost of 0.0F. hits.score(0) = 0.10848885, but Explanation shows: : : 0.0 = match required
1) you can never compare the score from a Hits object with the score from an Explanation. Explanation has the raw score, Hits has the psuedo-normalized score. 2) Explanation was notoriously kludgy and buggy when dealing with "non matches" or BooleanQueries that had prohibited clauses, or clauses which scored <= 0 prior to the resolution of LUCENE-451, LUCENE-557, and LUCENE-605. Regretably these changes are "post 2.0" so you'd have to use the head to try them out. -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
