I'm updating my lucene code from 3.0 to 3.4. There's a change in the MLT interface I'm confused about. I used the MLT.like(InputStream) method. It now appears I should change to the MLT.like(InputStreamReader, fieldname) method. Easy enough to create an InputStreamReader from an InputStream.
So, my question is regarding the addition of the fieldname parameter. There's also a call called MLT.setFieldNames(String[]). This would seem to be redundant except the setFieldNames() allows you to specify multiple fields and like() doesn't. Am I allowed to specify null as the fieldname in like() (documentation doesn't say you can). It seems like you shouldn't need to do both. But there's a difference in functionality between the two (since one allows multiple fields and the other doesn't). As a second question, is it possible to do something where you boost the MLT words from the subject and as opposed to the body of the document you are looking for similar items on? Thanks Scott
