Hi, the methods taking Weight are not for public use, only for internal use (e.g. subclasses). You should not pass Weight to IndexSearcher, use the native Query instance! Why do you want to pass a Weight to IndexSearcher?
Every Weight is created by a Query instance, so you can always pass the original Query instance to IndexSearcher, no usage of Weight is needed. IndexSearcher will correctly rewrite the query and create the weight internally you don't need to handle that (and it is subject to change and is only a implementation detail). In addition, there are no longer a Weight-based methods that can also take a Filter (not even protected). The reason for this is, that IndexSearcher no longer supports and executes Filters natively, the filter handling is now completely done inside FilteredQuery; IndexSearcher does not handle Filters anymore. The methods in IndexSearcher taking Query and Filter are for convenience, but use new FilteredQuery(Query, Filter) internally to wrap the Query/Filter combination and create the weight from it. If you want to use the internal search methods with Weight, you have to refactor your code and include the filter into your Query using FilteredQuery only passing a Weight to IndexSearcher. But those methods are protected; you can only use them from subclasses (under the assumption that you know what you are doing *g*). Finally, the class HitCollector was deprecated in Lucene 2.9 and was removed in 3.0, you have to use the new segement-based "Collector".
