Doron Cohen commented on LUCENE-1113:
-------------------------------------
How about:
{noformat}
Returns, at indexing time, the boost factor as set by [EMAIL PROTECTED]
#setBoost(float)}.
<p>Note that once a document is indexed this value is no longer available
from the index. At search time, for retrieved documents, this method always
returns 1. This however does not mean that the boost value set at indexing
time was ignored - it was just combined with other indexing time factors and
stored elsewhere, for better indexing and search performance. (For more
info see the "norm(t,d)" part of the scoring formula in
[EMAIL PROTECTED] org.apache.lucene.search.Similarity Similarity}.
