I've been looking at the changes I have to make in my code to go from 2.4.1 to 2.9. One of the features I have is to highlight query hits in documents which meet the search criteria. If the query has a phrase, then I need to highlight the phrase, but not isolated words from the phrase which also happen to be in the document.
In 2.4.1, I do this using the SimpleHTMLFormatter, the NullFragmenter and the SpanScorer. It looks like highlighter had a major overhaul in 2.9 and that SpanScorer is now the wrong scorer to use (it's been moved out of the highlighter). I also found some JIRA's that seem to imply that SpanScorer is now used by default, but I don't see anything in the javadocs that say this is the case. Do I just need to remove the SpanScorer completely and assume that the highlighter takes care of that for me? Can someone suggest what I need to do or point me to some documentation?
