Class NumericComparator<T extends Number>

java.lang.Object

org.apache.lucene.search.FieldComparator<T>

org.apache.lucene.search.comparators.NumericComparator<T>

Direct Known Subclasses:

DoubleComparator, FloatComparator, IntComparator, LongComparator

public abstract class NumericComparator<T extends Number>
extends FieldComparator<T>

Abstract numeric comparator for comparing numeric values. This comparator provides a skipping functionality – an iterator that can skip over non-competitive documents.

Method Detail

disableSkipping

public void disableSkipping()

Description copied from class: FieldComparator

Informs the comparator that the skipping of documents should be disabled. This function is called in cases when the skipping functionality should not be applied or not necessary. One example for numeric comparators is when we don't know if the same numeric data has been indexed with docValues and points if these two fields have the same name. As the skipping functionality relies on these fields to have the same data and as we don't know if it is true, we have to disable it. Another example could be when search sort is a part of the index sort, and can be already efficiently handled by TopFieldCollector, and doing extra work for skipping in the comparator is redundant.

Overrides:

disableSkipping in class FieldComparator<T extends Number>

setTopValue

public void setTopValue(T value)

Description copied from class: FieldComparator

Record the top value, for future calls to LeafFieldComparator.compareTop(int). This is only called for searches that use searchAfter (deep paging), and is called before any calls to FieldComparator.getLeafComparator(LeafReaderContext).

Specified by:

setTopValue in class FieldComparator<T extends Number>

setSingleSort

public void setSingleSort()

Description copied from class: FieldComparator

Informs the comparator that sort is done on this single field. This is useful to enable some optimizations for skipping non-competitive documents.

Overrides:
