well, ok, so the "all" may be misleading. call it queryBits instead then :)

"all" means *all documents that match the query*, though.

it wouldn't make sense to AND a bitset with one that is all 1's always.

Chris has given an example of how to perform categorisation of lucene
searches:

String[] mfgs = ...;
  String query = "+category:cameras +price:[0 to 10]";
  Query q = QueryParser.parse(query);
  Hits results = searcher.search(q, mySort)
  BitSet all = (new QueryFilter(q)).bits(reader)
  int[] mfg_counts = new int[mfgs.length];
  for i in (0 to mfgs.length) {
     BitSet these = (new QueryFilter(new TermQuery("mfg",mfgs
[i]))).bits(reader);
     these.and(all)
     mfg_counts[i] = these.cardinality();
  }

What I don't understand though is what this line does:

BitSet all = (new QueryFilter(q)).bits(reader)

Anyone have any ideas?

"all" is a BitSet lit up for the documents that matched "query".
"these" (the BitSet for a particular category) is .anded with "all"
to get the counts _left over_ for each category given "query".

Make sense?
