Class BoostQueryNode

java.lang.Object

org.apache.lucene.queryparser.flexible.core.nodes.QueryNodeImpl

org.apache.lucene.queryparser.flexible.core.nodes.BoostQueryNode

All Implemented Interfaces:

Cloneable, QueryNode

public class BoostQueryNode
extends QueryNodeImpl

A BoostQueryNode boosts the QueryNode tree which is under this node. So, it must only and always have one child.

The boost value may vary from 0.0 to 1.0.
