: My simplistic view has been that all the docs returned via Hits : or HitCollector have scores > 0, and all the rest have scores of 0, : and this view is supported by the explanation of : HitCollector.collect : : " Called once for every non-zero scoring document, with the : document number and its score."
(Hmmm... i thought those javadocs had been fixed a while back? oh well, i just did: r596462) Strictly speaking there's nothing to stop a document from having a zero or negative *raw* score for a query (ie: a ValueSourceQuery for example) it's just not common. the HitCollector.collect method is called for every *matching* document, with it's raw score. (I'm not actually sure how the Hits class treats negative values ... odds are no one using the Hits class is going to be dealing with a query that can product negative scores though) -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
