ValueMapPostingSource (Xapian::valueno slot_) | |
Construct a ValueWeightPostingSource. | |
void | add_mapping (const std::string &key, double wt) |
Add a mapping. | |
void | clear_mappings () |
Clear all mappings. | |
void | set_default_weight (double wt) |
Set a default weight for document values not in the map. | |
Xapian::weight | get_weight () const |
Return the weight contribution for the current document. | |
ValueMapPostingSource * | clone () const |
Clone the posting source. | |
std::string | name () const |
Name of the posting source class. | |
std::string | serialise () const |
Serialise object parameters into a string. | |
ValueMapPostingSource * | unserialise (const std::string &s) const |
Create object given string serialisation returned by serialise(). | |
void | init (const Database &db_) |
Set this PostingSource to the start of the list of postings. | |
std::string | get_description () const |
Return a string describing this object. |
This allows will return entries for all documents in the given database which have a value in the slot specified. The values will be mapped to the corresponding weight in the weight map. If there is no mapping for a particular value, the default weight will be returned (which itself defaults to 0.0).

void Xapian::ValueMapPostingSource::add_mapping | ( | const std::string & | key, | |
double | wt | |||
) |
Add a mapping.
key | The key looked up from the value slot. | |
wt | The weight to give this key. |
void Xapian::ValueMapPostingSource::clear_mappings | ( | ) |
Clear all mappings.
ValueMapPostingSource* Xapian::ValueMapPostingSource::clone | ( | ) | const [virtual] |
Clone the posting source.
The clone should inherit the configuration of the parent, but need not inherit the state. ie, the clone does not need to be in the same iteration position as the original: the matcher will always call init() on the clone before attempting to move the iterator, or read the information about the current position of the iterator.
This may return NULL to indicate that cloning is not supported. In this case, the PostingSource may only be used with a single-database search.
The default implementation returns NULL.
Note that the returned object will be deallocated by Xapian after use with "delete". If you want to handle the deletion in a special way (for example when wrapping the Xapian API for use from another language) then you can define a static operator delete
method in your subclass as shown here: http://trac.xapian.org/ticket/554#comment:1
Reimplemented from Xapian::PostingSource.
std::string Xapian::ValueMapPostingSource::get_description | ( | ) | const [virtual] |
Return a string describing this object.
This default implementation returns a generic answer. This default it provided to avoid forcing those deriving their own PostingSource subclass from having to implement this (they may not care what get_description() gives for their subclass).
Reimplemented from Xapian::PostingSource.
Xapian::weight Xapian::ValueMapPostingSource::get_weight | ( | ) | const [virtual] |
Return the weight contribution for the current document.
This default implementation always returns 0, for convenience when implementing "weight-less" PostingSource subclasses.
This method may assume that it will only be called when there is a "current document". In detail: Xapian will always call init() on a PostingSource before calling this for the first time. It will also only call this if the PostingSource reports that it is pointing to a valid document (ie, it will not call it before calling at least one of next(), skip_to() or check(), and will ensure that the PostingSource is not at the end by calling at_end()).
Reimplemented from Xapian::PostingSource.
void Xapian::ValueMapPostingSource::init | ( | const Database & | db | ) | [virtual] |
Set this PostingSource to the start of the list of postings.
This is called automatically by the matcher prior to each query being processed.
If a PostingSource is used for multiple searches, init() will therefore be called multiple times, and must handle this by using the database passed in the most recent call.
db | The database which the PostingSource should iterate through. |
Note: in the case of a multi-database search, a separate PostingSource will be used for each database (the separate PostingSources will be obtained using clone()), and each PostingSource will be passed one of the sub-databases as the db parameter here. The db parameter will therefore always refer to a single database. All docids passed to, or returned from, the PostingSource refer to docids in that single database, rather than in the multi-database.
Reimplemented from Xapian::ValuePostingSource.
std::string Xapian::ValueMapPostingSource::name | ( | ) | const [virtual] |
Name of the posting source class.
This is used when serialising and unserialising posting sources; for example, for performing remote searches.
If the subclass is in a C++ namespace, the namespace should be included in the name, using "::" as a separator. For example, for a PostingSource subclass called "FooPostingSource" in the "Xapian" namespace the result of this call should be "Xapian::FooPostingSource".
This should only be implemented if serialise() and unserialise() are also implemented. The default implementation returns an empty string.
If this returns an empty string, Xapian will assume that serialise() and unserialise() are not implemented.
Reimplemented from Xapian::PostingSource.
std::string Xapian::ValueMapPostingSource::serialise | ( | ) | const [virtual] |
Serialise object parameters into a string.
The serialised parameters should represent the configuration of the posting source, but need not (indeed, should not) represent the current iteration state.
If you don't want to support the remote backend, you can use the default implementation which simply throws Xapian::UnimplementedError.

void Xapian::ValueMapPostingSource::set_default_weight | ( | double | wt | ) |
Set a default weight for document values not in the map.
wt | The weight to set as the default. |
ValueMapPostingSource* Xapian::ValueMapPostingSource::unserialise | ( | const std::string & | s | ) | const [virtual] |
Create object given string serialisation returned by serialise().
Note that the returned object will be deallocated by Xapian after use with "delete". If you want to handle the deletion in a special way (for example when wrapping the Xapian API for use from another language) then you can define a static operator delete
method in your subclass as shown here: http://trac.xapian.org/ticket/554#comment:1
