Constructor Detail

TermSpans

public TermSpans(TermPositions positions,
                 Term term)
          throws IOException
Throws:
IOException
Method Detail

next

public boolean next()
             throws IOException
Description copied from class: Spans
Move to the next match, returning true iff any such exists.

Specified by:
next in class Spans
Throws:
IOException

skipTo

public boolean skipTo(int target)
               throws IOException
Description copied from class: Spans
Skips to the first match beyond the current, whose document number is greater than or equal to target.

Returns true iff there is such a match.

Behaves as if written:

   boolean skipTo(int target) {
     do {
       if (!next())
             return false;
     } while (target > doc());
     return true;
   }
 
Most implementations are considerably more efficient than that.

Specified by:
skipTo in class Spans
Throws:
IOException

doc

public int doc()
Description copied from class: Spans
Returns the document number of the current match. Initially invalid.

Specified by:
doc in class Spans

start

public int start()
Description copied from class: Spans
Returns the start position of the current match. Initially invalid.

Specified by:
start in class Spans

end

public int end()
Description copied from class: Spans
Returns the end position of the current match. Initially invalid.

Specified by:
end in class Spans

getPayload

public Collection getPayload()
                      throws IOException
Description copied from class: Spans
Returns the payload data for the current span. This is invalid until Spans.next() is called for the first time. This method must not be called more than once after each call of Spans.next(). However, most payloads are loaded lazily, so if the payload data for the current position is not needed, this method may not be called at all for performance reasons. An ordered SpanQuery does not lazy load, so if you have payloads in your index and you do not want ordered SpanNearQuerys to collect payloads, you can disable collection with a constructor option.

Note that the return type is a collection, thus the ordering should not be relied upon.

WARNING: The status of the Payloads feature is experimental. The APIs introduced here might change in the future and will not be supported anymore in such a case.

Specified by:
getPayload in class Spans
Returns:
a List of byte arrays containing the data of this payload, otherwise null if isPayloadAvailable is false
Throws:
IOException

isPayloadAvailable

public boolean isPayloadAvailable()
Description copied from class: Spans
Checks if a payload can be loaded at this position.

Payloads can only be loaded once per call to Spans.next().

Specified by:
isPayloadAvailable in class Spans
Returns:
true if there is a payload available at this position that can be loaded

toString

public String toString()
Overrides:
toString in class Object

getPositions

public TermPositions getPositions()
