Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-1754:
---------------------------------------
I am a little bit confused about the JavaDocs of iterator():
{code}
/** Provides a {...@link DocIdSetIterator} to access the set.
* This may (but is not required to) return null if there
* are no docs that match. */
{code}
Is it really allowed to return null instead of an empty iterator? If not, we
should silently remove this part of the docs (and hopefully do not break some
filters written by someone).

> Over in LUCENE-1614 Mike has made a comment about removing NonMatchinScorer
> from BS2, and return null in BooleanWeight.scorer(). I've checked and this
> can be easily done, so I'm going to post a patch shortly. For reference:

> I've marked the issue as 2.9 just because it's small, and kind of related to
> all the search enhancements done for 2.9.
