Constructor Detail

### ConstantScoreQuery.ConstantWeight

    public ConstantScoreQuery.ConstantWeight(Searcher searcher)
                                      throws IOException

Throws:
  `IOException`

Method Detail

### getQuery

    public Query getQuery()

  Description copied from class: `Weight`
  The query that this concerns.

  Specified by:
    `getQuery` in class `Weight`

### getValue

    public float getValue()

  Description copied from class: `Weight`
  The weight for this query.

  Specified by:
    `getValue` in class `Weight`

### sumOfSquaredWeights

    public float sumOfSquaredWeights()
                              throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `Weight`
  The sum of squared weights of contained query clauses.

  Specified by:
    `sumOfSquaredWeights` in class `Weight`
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### normalize

    public void normalize(float norm)

  Description copied from class: `Weight`
  Assigns the query normalization factor to this.

  Specified by:
    `normalize` in class `Weight`

### scorer

    public Scorer scorer(IndexReader reader,
                         boolean scoreDocsInOrder,
                         boolean topScorer)
                  throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `Weight`
  Returns a `Scorer` which scores documents in/out-of order according to `scoreDocsInOrder`.

  NOTE: even if `scoreDocsInOrder` is false, it is recommended to check whether the returned `Scorer` indeed scores documents out of order (i.e., call `Weight.scoresDocsOutOfOrder()`), as some `Scorer` implementations will always return documents in-order.
  NOTE: null can be returned if no documents will be scored by this query.

  Specified by:
    `scorer` in class `Weight`
  Parameters:
    `reader` - the `IndexReader` for which to return the `Scorer`.
    `scoreDocsInOrder` - specifies whether in-order scoring of documents is required. Note that if set to false (i.e., out-of-order scoring is required), this method can return whatever scoring mode it supports, as every in-order scorer is also an out-of-order one. However, an out-of-order scorer may not support `DocIdSetIterator.nextDoc()` and/or `DocIdSetIterator.advance(int)`, therefore it is recommended to request an in-order scorer if use of these methods is required.
    `topScorer` - if true, `Scorer.score(Collector)` will be called; if false, `DocIdSetIterator.nextDoc()` and/or `DocIdSetIterator.advance(int)` will be called.
  Returns:
    a `Scorer` which scores documents in/out-of order.
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### scoresDocsOutOfOrder

    public boolean scoresDocsOutOfOrder()

  Description copied from class: `Weight`
  Returns true iff this implementation scores docs only out of order. This method is used in conjunction with `Collector`'s `acceptsDocsOutOfOrder` and `Weight.scorer(org.apache.lucene.index.IndexReader, boolean, boolean)` to create a matching `Scorer` instance for a given `Collector`, or vice versa.

  NOTE: the default implementation returns `false`, i.e. the `Scorer` scores documents in-order.

  Overrides:
    `scoresDocsOutOfOrder` in class `Weight`

### explain

    public Explanation explain(IndexReader reader,
                               int doc)
                        throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `Weight`
  An explanation of the score computation for the named document.

  Specified by:
    `explain` in class `Weight`
  Parameters:
    `reader` - sub-reader containing the give doc
  Returns:
    an Explanation for the score
  Throws:
    `IOException`
