Constructor Details

PostingsEnum

protected PostingsEnum()

Sole constructor. (For invocation by subclass constructors, typically implicit.)

Method Details

featureRequested

public static boolean featureRequested(int flags,
 short feature)

Returns true if the given feature is requested in the flags, false otherwise.

freq

public abstract int freq()
                  throws IOException

Returns term frequency in the current document, or 1 if the field was indexed with IndexOptions.DOCS. Do not call this before DocIdSetIterator.nextDoc() is first called, nor after DocIdSetIterator.nextDoc() returns DocIdSetIterator.NO_MORE_DOCS.

NOTE: if the PostingsEnum was obtain with NONE, the result of this method is undefined.

Throws:

IOException

nextPosition

public abstract int nextPosition()
                          throws IOException

Returns the next position, or -1 if positions were not indexed. Calling this more than freq() times is undefined.

Throws:

IOException

startOffset

public abstract int startOffset()
                         throws IOException

Returns start offset for the current position, or -1 if offsets were not indexed.

Throws:

IOException

endOffset

public abstract int endOffset()
                       throws IOException

Returns end offset for the current position, or -1 if offsets were not indexed.

Throws:

IOException

getPayload

public abstract BytesRef getPayload()
                             throws IOException

Returns the payload at this position, or null if no payload was indexed. You should not modify anything (neither members of the returned BytesRef nor bytes in the byte[]).

Throws:

IOException
