Hmmm... that seems like it would be confusing: particularly since in the IndexWriter case the "Query" param would never make sense. changing IndexWriter.getSimilarity to take a "String fieldName" and changing Searcher.getSimilarity to take "String fieldName, Query q" seem like they would be more straight forward. (There's also the potential ambiguity of "how many times do i call Similarity.getSimilarity() before i stop?" ... it may seem silly, but if you're working in a Query or Scorer or Weight you may not be sure if it's been done yet) -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
