------------------------------------
Summary: Add BooleanClause.Occur.FILTER
Key: LUCENE-6227
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6227
Project: Lucene - Core
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Adrien Grand
Assignee: Adrien Grand
Priority: Minor
Fix For: Trunk, 5.1
Now that we have weight-level control of whether scoring is needed or not, we
could add a new clause type to BooleanQuery. It would behave like MUST exept
that it would not participate to scoring.
Why do we need it given that we already have FilteredQuery? The idea is that by
having a single query that performs conjunctions, we could potentially take
better decisions. It's not ready to replace FilteredQuery yet as FilteredQuery
has handling of random-access filters that BooleanQuery doesn't, but it's a
first step towards that direction and eventually FilteredQuery would just
rewrite to a BooleanQuery.
I've been calling this new clause type FILTER so far, but feel free to propose
a better name.
