Description: declaration: package: org.apache.lucene.queries.spans, class: NearSpansOrdered

Package org.apache.lucene.queries.spans

# Class NearSpansOrdered

java.lang.Object
org.apache.lucene.search.DocIdSetIterator
org.apache.lucene.queries.spans.Spans
org.apache.lucene.queries.spans.NearSpansOrdered

public class NearSpansOrdered extends Spans
A Spans that is formed from the ordered subspans of a SpanNearQuery where the subspans do not overlap and have a maximum slop between them.

The formed spans only contains minimum slop matches.
The matching slop is computed from the distance(s) between the non overlapping matching Spans.
Successive matches are always formed from the successive Spans of the SpanNearQuery.

The formed spans may contain overlaps when the slop is at least 1. For example, when querying using

    t1 t2 t3

with slop at least 1, the fragment:

    t1 t2 t1 t3 t2 t3

matches twice:

    t1 t2 .. t3

          t1 .. t2 t3

Expert: Only public for subclassing. Most implementations should not need this class

    public NearSpansOrdered(int allowedSlop, List<Spans> subSpans) throws IOException
    Throws:
      `IOException`

- ## Method Details

  - ### nextStartPosition

    public int nextStartPosition() throws IOException
    Description copied from class: `Spans`
    Returns the next start position for the current doc. There is always at least one start/end position per doc. After the last start/end position at the current doc this returns `Spans.NO_MORE_POSITIONS`.
    Specified by:
      `nextStartPosition` in class `Spans`
    Throws:
      `IOException`

  - ### startPosition

    public int startPosition()
    Description copied from class: `Spans`
    Returns the start position in the current doc, or -1 when `Spans.nextStartPosition()` was not yet called on the current doc. After the last start/end position at the current doc this returns `Spans.NO_MORE_POSITIONS`.
    Specified by:
      `startPosition` in class `Spans`

  - ### endPosition

    public int endPosition()
    Description copied from class: `Spans`
    Returns the end position for the current start position, or -1 when `Spans.nextStartPosition()` was not yet called on the current doc. After the last start/end position at the current doc this returns `Spans.NO_MORE_POSITIONS`.
    Specified by:
      `endPosition` in class `Spans`

  - ### width

    public int width()
    Description copied from class: `Spans`
    Return the width of the match, which is typically used to sloppy freq. It is only legal to call this method when the iterator is on a valid doc ID and positioned. The return value must be positive, and lower values means that the match is better.
    Specified by:
      `width` in class `Spans`

  - ### collect

    public void collect(SpanCollector collector) throws IOException
    Description copied from class: `Spans`
    Collect postings data from the leaves of the current Spans.

    This method should only be called after `Spans.nextStartPosition()`, and before `Spans.NO_MORE_POSITIONS` has been reached.

    Specified by:
      `collect` in class `Spans`
    Parameters:
      `collector` - a SpanCollector
    Throws:
      `IOException`

  - ### docID

    public int docID()
    Specified by:
      `docID` in class `DocIdSetIterator`

  - ### cost

    public long cost()
    Specified by:
      `cost` in class `DocIdSetIterator`

  - ### nextDoc

    public int nextDoc() throws IOException
    Specified by:
      `nextDoc` in class `DocIdSetIterator`
    Throws:
      `IOException`

  - ### advance

    public int advance(int target) throws IOException
    Specified by:
      `advance` in class `DocIdSetIterator`
    Throws:
      `IOException`

  - ### asTwoPhaseIterator

    public TwoPhaseIterator asTwoPhaseIterator()
    Return a `TwoPhaseIterator` view of this ConjunctionSpans.
    Overrides:
      `asTwoPhaseIterator` in class `Spans`
    See Also:
      - `Scorer.twoPhaseIterator()`

  - ### positionsCost

    public float positionsCost()
    Description copied from class: `Spans`
    Return an estimation of the cost of using the positions of this `Spans` for any single document, but only after `Spans.asTwoPhaseIterator()` returned `null`. Otherwise this method should not be called. The returned value is independent of the current document.
    Specified by:
      `positionsCost` in class `Spans`

  - ### getSubSpans
